| The Delusions and Malevolence of Our "Elite" Class |
| 2015-03-27 |
| So much going on, but so much of it the same thing over and over that at times I simply don't have the energy to state the obvious: America and the West are governed by an "elite" with a world view full of delusions and malice. The "elite" either is so deluded about the nature of the world, or so full of malevolence towards Western Civilization that, to paraphrase an "elite" darling and Presidential hopeful, "What difference, at this point, does it make?" The result is the same: disaster. In depth from the "Diplomat" at the link After Harry Truman left the White House, he and Bess drove their car back to Independence, Missouri. At that time his pension consisted of about $110. per month from his Army service. Presidential pensions were to come along later. Nothing has been the same since. |

| #4 Nero fiddling or 1938 comes to mind. A consequence of leftists trying to correct what they perceive as an anachronism. It resulted in choosing someone completely unqualified for office. |

| #3 Pensions, lifetime non-Obamacare healthcare, privileges, and so on... We truly do have an elite class. |

| #1 Trumans situation is why there are Presidential pensions. I think he ended up collecting, but he sure didn't take the job with the expectation of one. Not much of a head for money, couldn't even shake a measly million out of the money tree. |
