Liberal since your so against the evil one percent?

You must not read a lot of your news sources or you would already know that we aren't against the 1%, just the fact of how much power they have over the laws of the country, how much they get in tax subsidies while attempting to take them away from the poorest Americans, etc. Where do you think the term "Buffett tax" came from? Warren Buffett is the second richest man in America. He thinks those making over a million dollars should pay a minimum tax of 30%. Do you really think we hate him for that?

There will always be "A" 1%.

It is a natural fact of statistics that 'a' 1% must exist.

That is not the problem, of course.

The problem is when that 1% is elevated as gods, bowed down to, worshipped, and the rest of the nation is held captive to their caprice.

Be a 1%-er, and no one cares, to be honest. Good for you!

Be a 1%-er and get more laws changed that attack the 99%, force them into economic servitude and deny them any chance at honor, self-respect, or the chance to even dream... and you've become a definition of an aristocrat and a feudal lord or tyrant.

Sooner or later the serfs revolt!

'Twas always thus.

Until recently, the maxim that "To those whom much is given, much is expected." was held as truth.

Now, it seems as though those to whom much is given, they must grab more, because their ego's demand it.

Big difference!

If a 1%-er can succeed in earning that lofty status in a fair world and against all competition, why then change the rules once they're there?

Why not allow others to join the club, instead of erecting barricades and loopholes that favor only yourself?

THAT is what is wrong with the 1%.

Not just that there is a 1%, as some might have you believe.

I am not against top earners I just don't think they should get tax breaks with the roads and bridges the way they are. Generation outsource should of set money aside for all the Esinhouser road projects coming due.

Their quite hypocritical really but to call the media liberal is idiotic.

I'm not sure what exactly your question is, but I think aljazeera English is the most credible
