Venture Capitalist Compares ‘Progressive War On 1 Percent’ To Nazi Anti-Semitism
.
This guy has the gaze of a shark. More like a piranha. He’s Thomas Perkins, co-founder of the famous Silicon Valley venture capital firm of Kleiner Perkins Caulfield & Byers. He actually drew comparisons to the 3rd Reich’s treatment of the Jews (the 1% in Germany) and that of today’s treatment of the top 1% by the progressive community in a letter he wrote to the Wall Street Journal who in turn published it.
.
Just from a purely logical standpoint, the ONLY thing that is common to both of these instances is the mere fact that the groups involved supposedly constitute(d) 1% of the general population. Otherwise, there is no other serious parallel worth any consideration between these two separate historical phenomena. This is not the thinking of a particularly insightful individual. Oh well, one can still become a billionaire without being thoughtful or perceptive.
.
One thing this tells me is that the Super Rich (the top 1%) are starting to bristle at the ongoing narrative started by the Occupy Wall Street movement. About time, blood suckers! When you have the world’s 85 richest individuals outright owning half (50%) of the world’s economic assets then you have to conclude that human civilization is definitely at a crossroads. We’ve long since surpassed the economic excesses of the American Guilded Age (America – 1880-1900) for economic disparity.

What are we going to do about this? Vote the Goddamned Republi-“cons” out of office, especially the House of Representatives this coming November 2014. The GOP is nothing more than the Praetorian Guard for the Uber Rich! (Latin: Praetoriani) was a force of bodyguards used by RomanEmperors.) Beware GOP, the Vandals are at the gate pounding away.
