The author is a liberal Democrat spouting populism. The following is from the populist big guy vs little guy imagery playbook. Expect to hear more of it coming from Democrats during the general election.

“Whatever happened to the idea that you are responsible for your workers and to the larger community? Too often, people feel like just pawns in a ‘game’ of ever increasing largesse for the top dogs. The big shots are always the winners – often getting payouts in the millions when their companies fail — and the “losers” are left to figure out how to eat or buy clothes for their children.”

Chuck, doesn’t matter who said it- it’s the truth! TARP, the Fed giving the banks trilions of free money to play the carrytrade— all of this caused inflation, devaluation of our dollars, higher energy costs, food costs- all taxes on the taxpayers. Is that capitalism? Is that demoracy?

If these losers want to feed their children, let them go start their own business instead of sucking like leeches on the profit margins of the owners and shareholders!!
