    I think Republicans who make less than 3 million a year are idiots and those above are heartless… But I have a hard time believing this article is real. He beat his father so bloody they followed a blood trail out the door to the fence and determined he went next door to hide. That is a lot of blood but also, hiding next door with a blood trail to next door when you murdered someone seems like a fantasy story

      Rich people aren’t automatically smarter than poor people. Both groups are misinformed, likely in large part due to circumstances they were born into.

        No they aren’t smarter, but they are the ones Republicans laws benefit. They are voting for tax breaks and such for themselves at that point.

          Fair point. While I could argue they’re also voting for a dwindling consumer base, I realize the incentives that likely drive them the most are heavily weighted toward the short term.

            I appreciate the fact that both of you didn’t just say all rich people are ___ and acknowledged they’re still people. I have actually met some really nice rich people, but not fortune 500 rich, just well off.

            I very much agree with the better circumstances comment. I know some people who definitely didn’t have any obstacles in their upbringing, but they weren’t bad people.

            I also believe they have a hard time empathizing or even understanding less fortunate people because they don’t know any or didn’t have the experience. I’m sure they make decisions based on this life experience.

            I’ve also met some loaded super garbage people too. The kind of people who treat everyone like the help. Lots of them at sporting events oddly?

      He killed his father over a vaccine conspiracy. This does not strike me as someone who is stable and/or a criminal mastermind. Panic to flee took care of the rest.
