Now you’ve done it, you anti-capitalists

Listen to Dave Ross Commentary: Now you’ve done it, you anti-capitalists

You’ve stung the 1 percent with your harsh words and they’re fighting back.

“You’re acting like everyone who’s been successful is bad. I don’t understand it. I don’t get it,” says Jaime Dimon of JP Morgan Chase.

Dimon says stop blaming the job creators for unemployment: same with Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus. He formed the Job Creators Alliance so the 1% could tell THEIR side of the story. Reform the education system, he told Fox Business:

“We’re producing a lot of MBAs and a lot of PhDs, but nobody knows how to use a blow torch.”

Former Bank CEO John Allison says he used to be able to look a businessman in the eye and give him a loan, until new government regulations put a stop to that:

“They’ve come in changed the credit standards in the banking industry, making it very hard for banks to finance small business.”

Staples founder Tom Semberg can’t believe our stupid immigration rules:

“We’re trying to protect against al Qaeda and we’re killing our economy in the process.”

Because job creators who want to come here from other countries — can’t.

And finally, says Bernie Marcus, there’s the spoiled American worker:

“It’s easier not to work and get unemployment for a couple years, than go out and bust your back and do things that maybe you wouldn’t have done.”

So there you go, 99 percent. You want to fix the economy? Look in the mirror. The problem is YOU: your attitude, your education, and the people YOU elect.

And here we complain about corporations buying elections? The REAL problem seems to be that they haven’t bought NEARLY enough of them.
