(6,129 posts)40. Yep, hence the term "Wingnut Welfare." Your reward for doing your loyal service to the plutocrats.
If you're reasonably respectable, and not too crazy sounding, they give you a fellowship at the American Enterprise Institute. If you're reasonably respectable, but slightly crazy sounding they give you a fellowship at The Heritage Foundation. And if you're an embarrassing clown, side show freak, or convicted felon, like Sarah Palin, Oliver North, Karl Rove, or Mark Furhman, they give you a gig as a 'pundit' at Fox News.
Either way, those who serve to enrich the plutocrat class will be rewarded, and never starve in their old age. I can't say the same for regular people. (I mean, sometimes serving the plutocrats means trying to destroy Social Security, and therefore, LITERALLY trying to make regular people starve in their old age.)
