Excuses of privilege.

Editor,

Working people outnumber corporate bosses hundreds if not thousands to one; but by hook or by crook and by bludgeon, bribe, and bomb the rich have been in the cat-bird seat in our country essentially since it was founded.

There are more of us than there are of them, any yet they own the airways, the Congress, the cops, the military, the hospitals, and virtually everything else. The so-called rational arguments that keep this game alive are just the excuses of privilege and a cover for the enormous sums of money the ruling class controls.
