Sick At Heart
Today the headlines announced the conviction of Rajat Gupta on charges of "insider trading", a category of crime which many, including myself, find incomprehensible. If Raj is guilty of anything, it is of being successful. His rags-to-riches story is the sort to which we all used to aspire — before the show trials began.
Gupta's persecution was a bipartisan crusade. It began under Bush; Obams merely completed it, although the liquidation of the kulaks as a class has always been his goal.
Personally, I like rich people. I wish I knew more of them. I wish I was rich. In fact, I wish you were rich too. . . . Don't you?
