Okay, who's the elitist?
"Conservatives" always say that the "liberals" are the "elitists" ...

So, all this time that people invest in the stock market ... they are told "You have the risk of losing your investment ... there are no guarantees, there is no FDIC on your investment ..."

Well, we "liberals" seem to be missing our ID card for the "elite" ... J.P. Morgan gets to "buy" out Bears ... and the government guarantees that what they lose will be a mere pittance, at most ... because the government is assuming the risk on Bears' debt ...

Just who is the "elitist" there? Not the regular, little guy investors ...

You're a communist.

This response brought to you by the "Knee-jerk Reactionary Fascists of America."

3. The elitists are in DC and on Wall Street, as they've always been
...and anyone who says different is either one of them or a gullible working class slob.
