We are the 1%!

I guess this sums it up. While you were asleep, I was able to still make investments and like my idol Gordon Gecko says in the AMAZING movie Wall St., “Money never sleeps”. Many say you never wake a sleeping elephant, well what about Bob Parsons from GoDaddy.com (one of us 1%) he didn’t worry about that when he shot and killed one just a few months ago, no repercussions to his company and actually they are bigger than ever! You sent $ to George Bush and Bill Clinton (1%’ers) for Haiti but it never made its way to help the Haitians – as a matter of fact it made several people very wealthy, including The Red Cross. So you see 99 Percenters you are doing exactly what we need you to do to make more money. You have public outcries for a few weeks and then go to Twitter, Facebook, Digg, Reddit, etc and Change your profile pic to have a green hue, or make it black, or whatever color you want to attribute to this rally, feel as though that actually DOES something and move on to the next episode of Pan Am or Whitney. I cannot wait for you guys to tire of this and go home so I can look outside my office and see nothing but suits and skirts walking about generating more money. As I write this I am sipping a glass of Maison Surrenne that cost more than most of your wardrobes, I just signed up for Sailing lessons at Marthas Vineyard and will be heading to my 1600 sq ft loft after a meeting in an hour – What are you people doing?
You know, I didn’t win life’s lottery. And I’m telling you that’s A-OK with me. I scrap and hustle and pull together a living. But I didn’t borrow $100,000 to get an Art History degree that isn’t worth a plug nickel. And the first thing I spend my money on each month is health insurance so I don’t have to be further in the hole.
I read the stories of these whiners at the wearethe99percent.org website and I think “Here’s a bunch of social workers, serving a bunch of hapless goobers they call ‘clients’, bitching about how the world is unfair.:
I picture them all in a jungle, rounded up in a perfect circle, looking outwards and lecturing to the lions on the right way to behave…just before they become dinner.
They’re not the 99 percent: they’re…on the menu.
And their sob stories won’t be printed on the web unless they give an email address. I guess this is so Obama’s thug-ocracy has a way to get in touch with them at voting time and promise them free shit by email.

By the way…
do you notice how those people on the “99percent” website are afraid to show their faces? I would be, too. Because if I were an employer – and saw them in such a passive/aggressive light – I’d find any reason in the world not to hire them.
I haven’t heard anyone from the 90th percentile complaining. These people need a new name for themselves.
it’s sad to see people on wallstreet trying to act rich…
come on guys, you’re millionaires…there’s many of you.
you’ll never be us.
