Because them libtards should be thankful for their betters fumigating their wisdom! If it weren't fer their betters, they wouldn't have jobs! Trickle down economics work, regardless of what economists say! All hail capitalizm!
I'm sure hoping this is a sarcastic tongue in cheek comment.

Yah, I'd assumed that it was over the top enough to be obvious....but I can (sadly) see how it might almost seem like real outrage. Capitalism is fine as an aspect of society. As the definition or religion of a society, not so much. I find it disturbing that the economic system that is best suited to sociopathy is hailed as the only basis for a successful economy. Like most things in life....it's all about a mixture.
Our place as a world/tech leader for the last 60 years might be as much due to while every other world power was having their infrastructure bombed flat, the US was ramping theirs up to fill the demand for war material.
