I came up with a new spin on the "V for Vendetta" line which seems appropriate these days:
"The rich should be more afraid of the people than the people afraid of the rich." What got me thinking this was another KGO talk show last night which was hosted by Jim Gabbert, a wealthy San Francisco broadcaster who started out in radio and at one time owned one of the local TV stations. He's does not consider himself a conservative but more of a "conservative Democrat" or "liberal Republican." But he was fending off calls last night where he was defending rich against a rising tide of animosity by the public. At one point, being a pilot himself, he was defending private jets as a "business tool." Maybe the American public is waking up to the fact that we're worshiped money and those who've accumulated it far too long. They're waking up to the fact that the rich may just be greedy. There's nothing wrong with being wealthy but who needs more than five or six million dollars to live comfortably? The "Me" era is over and now time for the "We" era.
