A brief discussion comparing Obama technocrats and the growing American Bourgeoisie

Zero Hedge, put it on your blogroll or in your bookmarks.  Understand this,  you cannot understand what is going on in the world of politics without an understanding of the politics of finance.  "Tyler Durbin" is the owner of the site.  He is also the main character in Brad Pitt's movie,  "Fight Club."  I love it.  The man or the conglomerate,   picks one of Hollywood's "sexiest man alive" winners as his [their] "handle."  Me?  Marion Morrison will do the trick.  Don't believe me?  Just ask any of my women.  


From Zero Hedge:  

All that debt Obama acquired, and all the stimulus did work to redistribute wealth and income — it worked to redistribute wealth and income toward the well-connected crony capitalist groups that funded Obama into office. Obama can talk all he likes about cutting taxes for the middle class; the data shows who Obama’s redistribution policies have overwhelmingly favoured. Of course, leftists and statists often end up favouring the super-rich. That’s been the underlying reality of communism — politburos, bureaucrats, technocrats, party members all benefit at the expense of everyone else (in spite of all that proletarian rhetoric). Inviting the state to carve up national income and redistribute it is an invitation to corruption, and graft. Obama talks an updated version of the old communist rhetoric about redistributing wealth to the working class — he even adopted Stalin’s slogan “forward” — yet just like Stalin the reality of his policies is more wealth for the richest and most well-connected. What a surprise.
