A big pile of … dirt

 

See this pile of dirt? This pile of dirt represents what it’s like to be part of the 1% in the U.S. today. Because when you’re part of the 1%, you can do this. You can shit all over your neighbors, your community members, your fellow Americans. You can plan a housing development, and pile up a big ol’ mass of refuse, blocking some sap average homeowner’s view. A sap homeowner like me, who’s had to look at this pile of injustice for over three months and counting. If you’re like me, just some regular shmuck, there’s nothing you can do about it, unless you can afford a lawyer, and even if you do that, the 1% guy who’s shitting on you can afford a better lawyer. Also, the rules are different for you, Sap: if you were to pile up a mountain of dirt on your property like this, do you think it would go unpunished? Oh hell no! You’d be fined or ticketed—maybe even taken to jail—and maybe your neighbors would take you to court, and you’d be shunned and shamed, and society would deal with you appropriately. But a one-percenter? He’ll just bitch to his 1% friends about how some loud cunt is making trouble in his bid for “progress.”

Gawd bless America!
