Why Erin Burnett is so stupid????

[neotoy]

If I can live comfortably on less than 20k/year, that just makes these executives who make easily 400x that much, piteous fools who couldn't survive in the real economy. No wonder they need golden parachutes.

"Trickle down" was always the wrong metaphor, because the rich aren't like upstream stones -- they're like sponges.

Does water just 'trickle down" from a sponge? No way. To get water from a sponge, you have to SQUEEZE THAT MOTHER FUCKER GOOD.

And, so, 30 years later, the American people are down in the streets en masse -- they are circling the sponges like gigantic hands, and they are positioning themselves to finally wring water out of those stingy, lying, murdering sponges.

So, first she says it's NOT about the money (which it really is, because these cunt fucking CEO's gut everything in their company just so they don't have to pay themselves less out of the revenue till), and then she turns around and says that it's about the CEO's making 400 times (actually, it's 475 times) what their workers make -- which basically implies that they're making WAY higher salaries... which IS ABOUT THE MONEY.

Hot girls protecting potential sugar daddies? Who'd have thunk it.

I swear Burnett played Cruella De Ville in the local childrens' theatre production . . . the kids have refused to watch CNN for weeks.

This one thing that Burnett got right. How do you like that trickle down Reagan system, where the middle class lost 5% of its wealth during Bush while the rich have gotten 300% richer. Her statement comparing the tax on Bonuses to the Billions paid in bonuses after having these clowns bailed out, she's comparing apples to oranges. Bonuses over and above the tremondous salaries should be taxed at 50%. Like they are in the UK and Germany.

@wervasdeferens You're confusing politics with the monetary policy of the federal reserve. Both parties have the fed push down interest rates, which affects everything.

She's smart for a woman
