Let Them Eat Cake

I've been talking for quite awhile on here about the one percent of this country and how they really seem to be tone deaf when it comes to the other 99 percent. Worse are the folks who scream about socialist revolutions and yet shit all over the people (the president, many Democrats in Congress) trying to prevent such an uprising.

But I never thought that the wealthy of this country would stoop to a level as low as this. Take a look at these photos.
















These images are from a Halloween Party last year at the law firm of Steven J. Baum in New York. Party goers dressed up like people who have had their homes foreclosed amid a "tent city" that was set up in the office for people to go flap to flap and trick or treat. Baum represents banks and mortgage servicers in their foreclosure proceedings. It is the largest firm in New York and represents Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Wells Fargo.

At first, I simply couldn't believe that people would be this heartless. Then I realized that this these modern day Marie Antoinettes are really that fucking awful. And clueless. Who the fuck do they think caused all of this to begin with? THEIR clients. If anything, they should be dressing up as bankers and financial sector "whizes" who busted our country out like the mafia.

I guess the capacity to blame the victim is infinite.
