#3 And no matter how many times the Socialist Elite is unmasked as the greed obsessed villians they are the progs and their sycophants still believe.

#4 ...sort of like those who get grants for the Man Made Climate Change racket. No matter how often their 'models' fail, their sycophants still believe. The watermelon syndrome - green on the outside, red on the inside.

#5 Here's a question: where are the staff?

Where are the builders and artisans?

Who knew about this? A lot of people, that's who.

Yanbukovych should be brought to account. But there are others...

#6 Socialism in action. Sounds just like Obama, now doesn't it.
(He wants one, no make it two, with private Golf Courses, of course.)

#7 Income and holdings of new members of Congress vs the income and holdings of old/retiring members of Congress (or the number of 1 percenters in Congress vs the general population).

#10 Tymoshenko who was released from prison was one of the richest women in the world who made her fortune as a capitalist in the energy sector of the private sector. Her company alone raised enough revenue to retire substantial federal debt. When she announced her candidacy to public office her company was regulated out of existence by corrupt government officials partisan to Obama her opponent for refusing to pay bribes to play in the political sandbox. She eventually won an election using parallel vote counting processes and announcing the results immediately before the corrupt officials had time to distort the results.

Over the years corrupt bureaucracies succeeded in railroading her into prison.

She is a very interesting story indeed.

#11 P2K, I have no problem with Congresscritters being in the top 1%. It takes a fair amount of your own money to run for Congress. People like Darrel Issa, who was a self-made millionaire before running for Congress.

What I do have a problem with is people in the lower economic ranks coming in and then becoming members of the 1% while they're there. People like Harry Reid, for example.

#13 Are Nicolae Ceaușescu Xmas tree ornaments still in fashion?

OE has it right about rich folks in politics. Mitt Romney OK; Bill Clinton WTF?

#16 Chez de PG is interesting. Other than the normal recommended number of selfies on display (including a strange throw-doily thing) what should have people concerned is that he drinks grappa and sing karaoke. Very dangerous man.
