The rich are rich because they exploit people

Letter: Larry Nagel: Well-do-do contribute only crumbs to society

       Good advice from an Ayn Rand fan ? Just before the 2016 presidential election most Republican candidates for high office were avowed fans of this militant atheist and fervent Zionist , author of the cult classic " The Virtue of Selfishness ". 

The rich are rich because they exploit and oppress the vast majority of working class people -not because they work harder and think harder than all the rest of us combined. 

They get away with the public benefactor image because they also control the mainstream news media. And if the people ever WAKE UP, they have the police and the military to suppress rebellion and THOUGHT CRIME : for example, like, " The ruling class is not very nice and capitalism stinks for the rest of us ". They don't always win the class struggle. There was the Great French Revolution of 1789. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Russian Revolution and " Ten Days That Shook the World " ( by American journalist John Reed ) ' 

How many newspaper editors, " celebrity"  columnists, star reporters, Talk Radio blowhards would keep their job for one week if they voiced any serious and consistent criticism of the " American Way of Life ", meaning Trump's way of like, Hillary Clinton's way of life , the capitalist way of life ? 

When was the last time even NPR opposed any war crime of U.S. imperialism or of its ally in the Middle East , Zionist Apartheid Israel ? 

No, don't be JEALOUS OF THE RICH. Take Karl Marx's advice and take THEIR wealth away . We call it democratic socialism.
