Isn't That Rich?

It takes somebody named Rich to write a piece about the superrich and how they were the biggest winners in the midterm elections.

But it has been this way for a long, long time, ever since Reagan swept into office and with him the screwball idea that if you give the rich all kinds of handouts and tax cuts, the money will somehow flow to the peons below. The big scandal, of course, is both political parties have been bought off by the same interests.

And if somehow a real Democrat ever gets elected, that won't be a problem as long as there is the World Trade Organization around to circumvent a country's laws and regulations.
