I once had a conversation with a right winger, after the housing implosion. He spouted off about how the entire thing was the fault of minorities and poor people who had "bought more house than they could afford." I can't tell you how aghast I was.

They're carrying water for corporations, rich people and the elite who will destroy them, in the end.
It's like watching a train wreck.
