16. I'm way more concerned about white collar crimes like
out-sourcing, importing goods from sweatshops in other countries, environmental pollution, and the ever popular tax-evasion and accounting fraud.

It is a slick right-wing tool to make the people on the lower half of the social food chain hate and resent each other while these corporations have increased pay for their C.E.O's something like 3000% in the last couple of decades.

They get us so distracted by these petty resentments of so&so of such&such race/ gender/ sexual preference wants/ gets special rights/ privileges and what they have is what I was promised and they stole it from me therefore they should be imprisoned/ deported/ murdered, that we forget that if we got together as a united front we could totally kick their white collar criminal asses.

It's depressing that we seem to fall for it every time, too.
