That’s understandable....not at all unexpected.But do they support rationing for *everyone*?

I’d love to build these clowns a debris hut in “the woods.”

Here you go no electricity.
With their inability to hunt & trap game, all the animals should be safe.

Also, no gas stoves or lanterns will be available for their little survival session.

Well, the way I see it is, those “elites” who support this madness can go bleep 🤬 themselves.

I think people who think they’re elitist should be _______ until there’s none left.

Choose your own words.

I’d bet Bill Gates stew would be very tasty.

I'd bet it would taste like old goat.

This is no surprise. They’ve made no secret of it.

They want it for everyone but them so the hoi-polloi don’t ruin their little world playground.

No sense in ruining your vacations or neighborhood with the it being contaminated by encountering the unwashed.

What a fabulous experiment it would be if the elites ,defined as having an income of $150,000. Yearly and a post graduate degree, could illustrate by example rationing energy, gas, and meat.
They could practice this for 5 years. Everything they do would have to be documented, no cheating allowed. We would be able to see how well they did, at the end of the 5th year.

We can finally come to an agreement. I too favor restricting the elites’ gas, meat, electricity and freedom.

Outlaw private jets and boats over 30 feet. Its time for us to start taking away their stuff and see how they like it.

“The two Americas and how the nation’s elite is out of touch with average Americans.”

The wealthy are too disconnected from the common man to be involved in their governance.

The push to be like everyone else clearly works on near everybody. Women are the worst. No matter what one woman does if she's a role model the rest will ultimately fall in line. Whether its diet,dress, makeup or any of the "important" issues for the female sector often they copy one another. So it's not an elite smart guy problem it's a monkey see monkey do problem.

Some will grow out of it others won't.

Please let me know if these elite begin to sacrifice anything at all, that I doubt. They all talk a good game but seldom will they follow through.
