I was watching tv and I saw a show about the rich and their pets. Apparently they buy $6000 hand bags to carry only their dogs. Or their pets ride in their own Limo. Or the pets get their own first class seat on the airplane. I also saw a show where for a 8 year olds birthday her rich parents bought her a doll house. The problem is the doll house was two stories tall and larger and more luxorious than my house. You know, things like A.C. and electric, runniing water and so on. I a doll house!!! Also on this show they presented the grand opening of a Casinofor the super filthy rich in the Amazon rain forest. Of course they cut down everything. The only way to get to it is by your privated helicopter. Because everyone has a helicopter. Right? And in Las Vegas they have high roller games where the minimum bet to get in the game is $100,000. That is more than some famlies make in a year. And they throw in away in a second for a game.
So the question I pose to you is "Should open class warfare be awakend once again?"
apparently according to most ppl on this site, we should be tankful of such people and lick their boots coz if there was a class revolution "fascist socialists" would take over and there would be "another ruling class" and "vanguardism would prevail", fucks sake.

point taken.
But there must be some kind of action to be taken. The state of the world that the rich own is getting increasingly disgusting.

The shift in class consciousness does not need to be the poor rising up aginst such ridiculous consumption, but the wealthy realizing that using such wealth in this way makes them pathetic in the eyes of the world.
It's a bit darwinian, but if they do spend their money this way it sure won't last. So, history has a way of correcting the problem, just not as quickly or in the right direction as we would like.
One of the strongest messages we can push is the closing of the gap between rich and poor. I detest taxes and government spending, but luxury taxes and death taxes, if used by our governments to educate and rehab so the poor can recover, are a great first step to making this happen on a local scale than can then be spread globally.
