WE'RE STILL NUMBER ONE

Interesting fact. I was reading an article about how perhaps the fact that the gap between rich and everyone else has grown wider and wider in the UK has something to do with the riots there. The article mentioned that the there's only one rich country in the world where the gap is wider: you guessed it, the good old USA.

As my friend Terence reminded me, there were huge demonstrations in Israel recently over the growing gap there, hundreds of thousands of people in a country with only millions. Notice our media didn't cover those peaceful demonstrations about the rich taking too much and leaving the rest of us less and less.

The right always screamed "class war" if any Democrat raised the issue of the growing economic disparity between the rich and the rest of us. They better pray they don't see a real class war.
