(4,503 posts)That's just the way of the world, and many hardworking people in the world have had their lifestyles disrupted without hiring the world's worst goons to strike out at some other group just because they could. I have watched extreme right-wingers at rallies and in interviews and in other places. Time and again, I watch these people bellowing as if they are in pain, although they are obviously well-fed, well-clothed, well-equipped with great cars and fancy guns and large houses, and gifted with a generous amount of leisure time. More than I ever had when I was in the workforce. I keep wondering, "What do they really have to be angry about? Don't they know how lucky they are?" Why do they always think they are the only ones who work hard? It seems to me that what they are being "deprived" of is the freedom to bully others with impunity.
