The link tot his profound thing by Asher Edelman is here

the video for any having trouble is here
The truth always has a sting in it, and he speaks it. Not all the 1% are completely blind, and it is good to see. economies are like ecologies, and the present way the economy is set up os bad for all, including the wealthy, some can see that there has to be a give and take relationship where it is not all take to their side and all give from the poor. Time to restore balance to both the economy as well as the ecology.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
A poster named hawkfish gave a list of Nick Hanauer discussions, he is another plutocrat telling the others to wake up and see what they are doing wrong
Nick Hanauer is another

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
and me again:
Yep, when the plutocrats speak out to other plutocrats that they can see the pitchforks and torches in the future horizon, maybe the other plutocrats should stop being greedy and realize that they have imbalanced the system, that they should live with higher taxes, that social safety nets are a must for a civilized society, and that investing in the nation that helped them get so wealthy is a good investment, not make it their private personal piggy bank and playground.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
But all too often they never learn Len. That's why our history is littered with revolutions. Every few centuries the axe comes out.
We are approaching that time again.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
No problem guys! yes, while Hanauer and Edelman are raising the warnings to do the right thing before it is too late, the rest seem to be dismissive, forgetting their security guards are still part of the 99% they seem to like to step upon. French Revolution went poorly for the Nobility then, another now (which they could avoid letting Sanders win), which is likely to occur when people start to wake up and realize that they will never have justice until they take it violently, sadly.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
ALL I can say Tim, Bernie is getting a lot of support even though he is supposedly attacking the establishment. For me there is something beginning to appear, and I am not sure it's all good. You know, some of those big bankers are Jews who support Bernie on one side, but want to uphold the status quo on the other side. Just thinking, following the smell. Lol.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
No matter what happens Len, they are all into trouble. Bernie Saunders has made too much of a democratic change in the party, its almost impossible to reverse it, I am sure it will show up no matter who wins, republicans, or democrats.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
The Democratic party has been shown to be a sham this election cycle to even those who may have thought otherwise.
No longer the "party of the people" but the party of elites and wealthy. Basically the new moderate republican party, the GOP is handed over to the insane, and stupid, and we on the left have to form a new party to balance things.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
Often happens with a two party system Len. The two parties move closer an closer together until the become two branches of the one party. Only a change to a multi-party system will stop it from happening.
We had a two party system here until 1996 when we changed to MMP and that has stopped the winning party saying one thing and then doing another. MMP is a multi-party system where the smaller parties moderate the big ones.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
We do need a multi-party system the "2-party system" is shown as corrupt and out of balance.
DWS is toxic, lies, is biased for Killary, and has to step down she is wasting space. It does show that woman can be equal to men in politics, equal in corruption.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
I am not sure anymore Tim, I think it could be a little late now. The corruption and creed is so wide spread that you would be hard pressed to find virtuous players.

Conversation:
Trump: Hey Bernie, we have a lot of things in common.
Bernie: Oh yeah, like what?
Trump: Neither of us are under FBI criminal investigation.

Re: Plutocrats on plutocrats
But back to the original topic. Even those who are used to having anything that they could desire at their beck and call are waking up to the idea that the class they belong to has gone maybe too far and over reached the limit of how far they can get away with. They are worried, and trying to wake their fellow richy-rich types to the potential issues of a world they can't escape the anger of the masses anymore with information so easy to have.
