3. But ... but ...

it doesn't look that way on TV or in the news and such and such.

It appears to be a nice, homogenous mass of consumers with devices who watch very low-brow comedy just to feel superior.

There's lots of beer and a recovery of some recovering for ... for everybody, right? Gotta' be.

And nobody hears about poor people much, not here and not there. Our clothes and stuff are made by magic elves who are content with cookies and spice and a glass of milk for their paycheck.

It's a beautiful world we live in!

That chart is so ... silly.

5. What a bunch of whiners and cynics in that 99.9 percent.

Such poutrage. Such hissyfits.

Keep talking, corporatists. Keep talking, Third Way. Keep talking, neocons. Keep talking, neoliberals.

Keep talking. We are all listening to your contempt for us. All ninety-nine point nine percent of us.

Just keep talking.
