I know some of those guys. And they're def NOT the 1%. They're arrogant little twenty somethings, who work for the 1% Yes, they probably make a decent buck trading under someone elses license, but they're getting screwed over just like the rest of us.

Its sad that during the Great Depression there were stories of traders killing themselves because they had lost everything. Now they have lost everything again and are laughing at us all while the government stops them from becoming poor. The world is now one messed up place.

The arrogance of the 1% makes me want to wretch. It is no wonder to me why our country is in the state that it is in. Our leaders are arrogant, out of touch, self serving, and care not for the 99%. And the 99% is to blame for the 50% who are simply too stupid, under educated, and bible-thumped to know we are being eaten one by one. Time to stand up!

For all who read this post Boycott, sell your stocks. Show these clowns who really is in charge! Stamp out the Alexander Haig syndrome "I'm in charge-I;m in charge." If it was not for the many individual's, pennies, nickles dimes and quarters, blood sweet and tears the 1% would not be in the position they are in..
