>You view welfare as having an ethnic connotation but 'greedy parasitic financiers' doesn't? Examine the very hateful history of your line of reasoning. Defensive much? I never commented on the ethnicity of the financiers or any connotations thereof. In fact, ethnicity has nothing to do with my comment at all. It was a simple analogy intended to illustrate that, like the phrases I mentioned, the phrase "1%" is loaded and does not simply mean "the wealthy". But, while you're pouncing and introducing an actual hateful "ethnic" implication, you should probably consider that bitterness towards the 1% supersedes race. >Who exactly wrecked the economy and how? What schemes have been run? If your obtuseness is genuine, then you might start with Google, one of the many books that have been written, or a documentary. If your obtuseness is deliberate, then have fun with it. Either way, I won't engage in a debate about facts.
