TAKE ONE
Rich people who don’t know they’re rich and have all sorts of ideas about how to make you poorer.

TAKE TWO
Rich people with a sense of immunity from the real world affects of what they advocate for – affects that will hurt you worse than them.

And in this example, there’s a dose of entitleism also, as a bunch of Harvard/Yale students took to the football field a few years ago as part of the Extinction Rebellion rallies, which thankfully seem to have died out.

In this case it was only the Harvard-Yale football game that was interrupted, rather than something really important like Ohio State vs. Georgia Bulldogs, but even so.

The sense of immunity and entitleism? When police officers tried to persuade them off the field, some of these students shouted “My father is a lawyer!”

Oh yes, little ones, I’ll bet he is, and a high 6-figure lawyer too if you’re at Harvard. Mummsy is probably a lawyer also. Ironically they’ve apparently never taught their kids how to argue, although that hardly matters since it’s not a skill demanded by Harvard or Yale nowadays.

TAKE THREE
Rich people who don’t know what it’s like to be poor – and have all sorts of ideas of how to make you poorer.

“Some people say, well, taxes are regressive. But in this case, yes they are. That’s the good thing about them because the problem is in people that don’t have a lot of money.

And so, higher taxes should have a bigger impact on their behavior and how they deal with themselves.

So, I listen to people saying ‘oh we don’t want to tax the poor.’ Well, we want the poor to live longer so that they can get an education and enjoy life. And that’s why you do want to do exactly what a lot of people say you don’t want to do.”

That’s Michael Bloomberg talking about taxes on the little pleasures of life like booze, tobacco and sugary drinks. He’s a 81 year old man who is currently worth around $58 billion but found that he couldn’t buy his way into being President of the United States.

You’ll notice that all these rich people are either Left – in Thunberg’s case she’s basically now outed herself as a communist – or pushing Lefty ideas and policies.
