Shocking survey reveals the reason elites are out of touch – and it isn’t why you think

[Crepitus]

Interesting that a mainstream media outlet would report the ignorance typical of the elite.

An editor is gonna be in deep crap, maybe.

There is very little differences in the two parties and the "elites" know this which is why little changes.

Maybe.

I can’t recall ever reading something like this in a mainstream media outlet.

I’ve long known of the absurd ignorance prevalent among the elite, thanks to reporting from independent sources.

The elite control the two gangs, which is why both are very similar. Somehow the people have yet to comprehend this.

There are major differences in the two parties.

There isn’t a lot of difference between the ultra rich as far as how they feel about the “unwashed masses”

Wall Street? The same.

War? The same.

This says it all and speaks for insulated democrat white breads…

“But it is still striking that the class disproportionately represented in positions of influence does not feel the same, very real economic pains the rest of America does.

I have experience in this from the company I just sold before I retired. They don't hate us, they don't even think we are human. We are less than their pets to them. Obstacles to be avoided or removed, not people. And that's global, not just here.

that is the nature of capitalism.
