Make no mistake the wealthiest Americans won.
And if you have no other options but to watch one of the Newscasts controlled by the corporate mega-rich you probably didn't hear a word of this Democratic held questioning of the CEO's of the richest banks:
CEO Jamie Diamond JP Morgan Chase & Company
(That company that foreclosed on thousands of families because of the 2008 stock crash)
Salary $28 MILLION
CEO James Gorman Morgan Stanley
(That company that vaporized people's money in 2008)
Salary $25 MILLION
CEO Ronald O'Hanley State Street Corporation
(Heavy Investments in Washington Lobbyists)
Salary $25 MILLION
CEO David Soloman Goldman Sachs
(That company that bankrupted investors because of unscrupulous investment practices of the wealthy)
Salary $25 MILLION
CEO Brian Moynihan Bank of America
(That other bank that charges you $35 if your checking account gets 10 cents overdrawn)
Salary $21 MILLION
CEO Charles Scharf Bank of New York Mellon
(Changed Apple Inc. into greedy SOBs, created the world's largest "pay or die" search engine Google that has put MILLIONS of small businesses out of business and bolstered it's richer clients... Europe sued Google for Billions for unfair practices.. the USA won't because Google pays Lobbyists to squash any thought of a fair level internet neutrality)
Salary $18 MILLION
And, last but not SCUMMIEST...
CEO Michael Corbat Citigroup
(You know that financial rape entity that was sued after 2008 for MISLEADING their customers to invest in high risk stocks... oops I mean "Preferred stocks"... then TURNED AROUND AND FORECLOSED ON FAMILIES BECAUSE OF THEIR ETHICAL CRIMES!)
Salary $18 MILLION
* Estimated salaries do not include secret "bonuses", inside stock "shares", "golden parachute" compensations, and all those "unreported-invisible" gratuities.
We'd show you the mansions, vacation homes and rental properties these greedy bastards own but we don't want to cause mass vomiting.
MEANWHILE...
The average middle class poor family must now have two spouses working full time to pay the bills. The average American works harder with less benefits and is just treading water.
Average American worker: $44,564 Wages for this group have changed very little since the 1970s. Back when a loaf of Bread was $1.56. Today it's around $3.50. Tract homes were $27k, new cars were $1800.
According to research based on Census data four out of 10 Americans with incomes below $20,000 classify themselves as "middle class". However poverty threshold as determined by the U.S. Census Bureau had not changed since 2006. For a family of four, it was $21,203.
On the other end, one-third of those who enjoy incomes over $150,000 say they are "middle class".
But these people are in a class of their own. "Financial Rapists". A salary of $400 PLUS DOLLARS PER HOUR for anyone is a crime. Oh they'll give you a song and dance about having to attend college (most given college by their rich parents) and they'll say "they're steering the ship they should be compensated for the pressures of being in charge"... yea? working in a menial labor job and scraping to pay your bills for a couple decades involves "pressures" too. Poor babies.
Billions of dollars in additional profits are in the pockets of these people and about two thousand other CEO's, Hedge fund Investors, Wealthy Trust Inheritors, etc who were already reaping grossly massive incomes before Trump.
Trump basically granted the wealthy the right to financially rape the masses while telling the masses "Your life if going to be great again".
That my friends is just good ole common manipulative BULLS**T.
Trump supporters are literally the people who take it in the *** while saying "Thank you sir may I have another".
WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF TRUMP WINS 2020:
Trump's 2020 election will be well funded. The rich LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM! You would too if he was making your bank account swell. But there's a tide coming. Sooner or later 300 million people will be pissed off seeing CEO's gain while their lives stay stagnant. Civil unrest will lead to a civil, non-violent revolution of
