Seems the rich need to get richer to avoid the economic instability
that their very policies create. They co-opt the middle class to be their enablers. It is an addiction to money and wealth and they are behaving like addicts what with the irresponsible behaviour (not paying taxes, reducing regulations no matter what) and denial (climate change anyone?). The next time there is a bubble they will be there to make money on it and go along for the ride. Then there will be a crash and others will suffer. And they'll cycle again.

1. The rich have waged class warefare...
..against the middle and lower classes all 8 years under Bush. It's time to wake up and tax them and distribute the wealth. They have been hording all the wealth for years.
