If there is no class warfare then why are the one percenters, the billionaires, building bunkers, buying thousands of acres of land, buying islands, building superyachts, and going into space looking for potentially inhabitable planets?
Do they know more than we, the peons, do about what is happening and what is expected to happen? Just what are they afraid of?
Do they think the proletariats are coming for them with pitchforks? If so, why would they think this way? Guilty conscience, maybe? Could it be that they know that a few people that possess 99% of the wealth in the world is unsustainable, and are worried about the 99% of the people will do and will they declare a class war? The 99% against the 1%, and if I was a member of the 1%, I would change my ways or dig a deeper bunker.
Even with bunkers, super yachts, islands or their money and thousands of acres of land, they will still need fuel, food, water, medicine, medical care, and who will they trust to do it for them?
There has never been a fortress that has lasted because sooner or later, it will be breached. If the super rich think they are invincible and the chosen ones, and are so smart then why don’t they just do what is the right thing—pay their fare share, pay a living wage, push for free healthcare with no out of pocket expenses, free education all the way, and a four-day work week, support unions, then maybe we could put away our pitchforks.
They could choose to be like Dr. Ruth Gottesman, a former Albert Einstein College of Medicine professor, who recently donated $1 billion to the Einstein school to provide free tuition for all students going forward. She and her late husband David, a wall Street financier, had more than they knew what to do so she decided to do good. At 93, she knows she can’t take it with her and it’s pointless to hide in a bunker.
It’s time to pick a side. You want to have and keep unions with good wages and pensions, then it’s time to pick a side. You want to keep Social Security for yourself and family, it is time to pick a side. You want to get or keep Medicare and Obama’s Affordable Care Act, then it’s time to pick a side. It is us against the billionaires. The very rich got that way off the backs of workers, and now want to strip everything away from those workers. It’s time to pick a side. The very rich can buy countries, then make the people get on their hands and knees and grovel and beg for scrapes that usually go into the dumpster. It’s time to pick a side. Is this what we want for our family and our future? It’s time to pick a side. Get ready to fight for you and your families’ lives. There is no middle ground with these greedy people for they want it all—all the money—all the power—all the land so where does this leave us when they have all the commons, like water, land and airways? It’s time to pick...
