$34,000? You're in the World's Top 1%. Congratulations from the Charles Koch Foundation. Insulted yet?

This Koch brothers ad is so offensive that...well, I don't know what to say, except this might just change a lot minds. It's called Economic Freedom 101. Really. The Charles Koch Foundation had to compare our wages to the "World's" wages, to come up with this one. There's really nothing like this and never will be. Are the teabillies watching....:



Here are a few of the comments...the last one is my favorite:
1. You're so damn lucky to be poor -- now make me another hamburger! Love, Papa Koch

2. You neglected to mention that it's things like excessive CEO pay and a low minimum wage that have reduced the US's ranking.

3. Anyone have an idea why this guy hates poor people so much?

4. Fascist Propaganda bar none

5. You end poverty... by giving people less money for their work? Did you guys fail basic math?

6. Talk about moving the fucking goalposts: So because the poors of, say, Singapore, have more money than the poor in Zimbabwe, they are not poor, worked to death, or deprived of civil liberties? This foundation is a disgrace to all thinking people.

7.Charles Koch is a super villain.
