Trump diplomacy - 2016-12-27

It aint easy being incredibly rich in a world where children starve.

If you are a Christian, you can attend a Prosperity Theology church that will tell you that God rewards the righteous with lots of loot.

If you are not Christian, you can console yourself with Horatio Alger/ Ayn Rand philosophy where the best and the brightest win their wealth by superior effort and intelligence.

Billionaire buffoons undermine that belief. I suspect that the worlds' billionaires find Trump's twitter idiocy more disturbing than my libtard gang.

Be prepared for lots of special interest money being spent on media attention (attached) to the importance of hard work and education in becoming rich, even though the strongest characteristic of modern wealth now is parental wealth. The U.S. has become the developed world's LEAST class-mobile economy. Wealth is inherited and grown by hedge fund financial chicanery, not by effort, intelligence or innovation.
