      That’s because—for many reasons—there are way too many non-billionaires on team billionaire.

        I worked with a guy that proudly proclaimed that he voted for the right because they looked after the rich.

        He was not rich, but he purchased lottery tickets weekly and stated he’d rather get screwed while poor than pay more tax if he, some day, became rich.

        And that was the day I realised that we’re fucked.

            I don’t, I feel like moron / stupid just doesn’t cut it for idiots like this. I honestly don’t know of an adjective the fully encapsulates the stupidty, childishness, and naivite of a regular person aligning with the super rich.

              Corporate brainwashed, delusional, desperate, uneducated, lazy, close-minded, coping human?

              The media is pushing “answer a few questions, or spin a wheel, and get rich”, and “sing in your car, then get famous on Idol” and getting huge ratings. Same way we got this fucking President. Corporate brainwashing.
