The usual kulak/petty burshwá dipshit who "runs the family business" of leeching surplus value and sending some emails is usually proud of it, leave alone the shitstains with 4 surnames and zero heterozigous loci.

Same with PMCs in overpayed jobs, usually saying "yeah I got this job thanks to my uncle/frat top"

But then mediocre overvalued "artists" piss and moan about their daddy owning Sony not being a big deal in their astroturfed careers.

Why? Some people do end up actually liking their music, so who cares if they didn't have to audition a million times and waste their own few money playing virtually for free in shitty bars?

    I'm pretty sure I've read the same story, and in my memory it was JFK addressing union members during a campaign. JFK was no leftist but that kind of honesty and directness seemed to be pretty effective for him.

      Wasn't JFK quite good friends with most of the Union higher ups, partly because of Democrat-loyalty and partly because JFK's dad was a massive influence for the mob, which the unions used to "discourage" scabbing?
