[quote=svelte][quote=flyer]What is going on politically doesn’t really surprise me, when you realize 75% of the financial wealth in this country is held by the top 10 percent of households, with the bottom 25% divided among the remaining 90 percent.

I’m confused. Are you saying it makes sense that people are angry about the concentration of wealth among a few individuals, so it follows that they would rally around a reported billionaire notorious for bully business practices?[/quote]
Not at all. I’m saying that it doesn’t surprise me that, based upon the inequality of wealth in this country, perhaps the desperation of 90% of the population has led them to look for a political savior–which possibly explains the level of chaos and bs we are witnessing in the political arena on– both the right and the left.
