The author provides our Saturday offering of information about the one percent of our fellow Americans who rule over us, sponsor our elections, and screen the information about the world that we receive from their media. It is important that we understand all their concerns and issues.
With regard to hurting the feelings of the rich, I didn't see much of that here in Washington State where I live. People were given the rare opportunity to tax the rich with an income tax for those with incomes over $200,000, and they voted it down .
Apparently people here are more respectful of the rich and don't wish to offend them. It seems that the people of Washington State would much rather layoff teachers, firemen, close libraries, and cut back on services to the poor.
On a more serious note, I am most appreciative of this author whose 2007 documentary entitled, "The One Percent", I saw last night. Although Mr. Johnson is no flaming radical, he is a decent member of this exclusive club, and as such, he was able to gain access to many prominent members of his class to ascertain their views on the growing gap between the rich and the poor. This is a must-see film. I got the film through that company that mails them to subscribers.
