The Ruling Elite Called

Please go to the links provided and read this text in full. It's really very good.

From Zerohedge and The Burning Platform.


I just got off the horn with the Ruling Elite. We had an emergency conference call and to tell you the truth, they ain’t happy. You little people are not responding the way you are supposed to. A significant portion of you are not getting more optimistic because they tell you to. Instead of just reading the headline on Bloomberg that durable goods orders skyrocketed in June, you actually read the details that said durable goods orders plunged. It is getting difficult for the ruling elite to keep the masses sedated and dumbed down. These damn bloggers, with their facts and critical thinking, are throwing a wrench into the gears. Obama and his crack team are working round the clock to lock down the internet, but it will take time. Not that they are totally dissatisfied. They’ve been able to renovate their penthouses and purchase new mansions in the Hamptons with the billions in bonuses you supplied through TARP. The $1.2 trillion supplied by your children and grandchildren to buy up toxic mortgages off their balances sheets was a godsend. They will never call you suckers, to your face...

  1. I caught this one early this morning on ZH. it was quite an exhilarating broadside rant against the oligarchs and plutocrats who call the shots. I especially enjoyed the picture of Summers, Geithner, Orszag and the blimp in the blue dress. You ought to go back to the ZH article though and read the comment about half way down by David Pierre and also posted in the comments @ Burning Platform. I'd be interested to get your take on the quite obvious and unapologetic race baiting that appears on that site.

  2. i see what you mean. I made a quick look on the burning platform for the racist texts which were quoted in the comments but couldn't find them. Maybe the guy is a racist, or maybe he isn't. This text however which I posted has no trace of racism or I wouldn't have posted it. It's a good piece, and funny.
