Every once in a while the perfect storm occurs. Every once in a while the perfect poster boy for a cause jumps out of nowhere and makes him or herself known, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose, sometimes by a combination of the two. Thanks to the 76-year old CEO of private equity firm Castle Harlan, the 99% have just acquired a perfect 1% poster boy. It happened in Palm Beach (FL). John Castle, who made himself rich by doing the "corporate raider" thing, found himself dining at Club Colette, an elite Palm Beach private club. When the waiter presented the bill to John, as he had been instructed by John's wife, Mr. Castle saw fit to become enraged at the indignity of being presented by a bill. He called the waiter a "schmuck" and proceeded to break the 57-year old waiter's little finger (that young whipper snapper - how dare he give him a bill in plain sight of other American Aristocrats?).

I spotted this "incident" while browsing the Huffington Post, and the way the "HP" handles comments about it illuminates the fact the AOL is destroying the once liberal haven and using it to protect their conservative pals by preventing unflattering discourse concerning them. I had the good fortune of reading one such comment, by poster Rick Eriksen, just before the mods deleted it from the HP forum Rick's comment below was a reaction to the behavior of a wealthy pig and I can't say it's out of line. The offending comment is shown below.

I would fix this guy’s eating habit by simply kicking his teeth down his throat, then I beat the crap out of him and then I sued him…and
if he didn’t cough it up I’d find out where he lived and repeat the process until he got it…

Of course Rick's comment - which merely reflects what most of the 99% are thinking - was judged too strong for the rightwing Huffington Post. He's following the rules of the site (where they are unevenly applied) and just saying what HE would do. You can read more about this encounter with a wealthy pig of a human being at Gawker, and you can see the thread at the soon to be completely destroyed Huffington Post website here.
Wealthy pig fucker (or "WPF") John believes he has the right to assault, humiliate and cripple an American Worker who angered him for some reason, no matter how insubstantial. His attitude is far more common than you may believe. Those of us who have worked for the very wealthy know that many of them behave like this - they act like those who make less money than they or inherited less are fair target for rudeness, humiliation, and physical attack. The rules don't apply to them and they know they can buy any court, anywhere, making use MEAT for them to do anything the wish. Humiliation, torture, assault - all the same. It's their right to do it to us. But, "ha ha", the jokes on you. Now your activities are being made part of the general conversation thanks to these darn computers and you tubes and the google, you know.
The wealthy believe they have a right to touch us. To hurt us. Assault us. Even cripple us. We are nothing to htem. Isn't it time for the US worker to begin making them realize there are more of us than them? WAY more of us? Here's a picture of the WPF, courtesy of Gawker, with a little modification by a filthy liberal.
These people make my, ANY American Worker's blood boil. I richly hope WPF John Castle runs into a friend of the employee he crippled one day. I also hope all waiters and waitresses in the land memorize this man's face and make sure to give him the service he deserves - and don't forget anyone sitting with him.
