By parasites I mean capitalists and their politicians.

By Capitalists you mean people who start & run businesses that hire everyone else & pay them wages, right? No poor man ever gave me a job.

How utterly lacking in personal insight the elitist Leftist is! It borders on self-parody. Surely they can't mean what they say they mean?

The problem is cultural. WASP tied to people through christianity. Today elites have their own culture and justify authority on superiority.

Considering that the elites are the reason we're in this mess (Iraq war, deregulation, financialization of economy), I say fuck 'em.

Elites & experts are not the same thing. To understand you have to go back to Jeffersonian class warfare. Productive Class vs Parasites.
