At the link below, there's a discussion of a controversy Margaret Thatcher got into, commenting on the French Revolution, that it did almost nothing for the poor of France, it was just another opportunity for a greedy special interest group to pillage the nation's assets, the traditional institutions of monarchy and church had largely served to protect the poor. There was adverse reaction among the elites in France to Mrs. Thatcher's remarks, but among the rural French, especially in the Vendee, there was agreement with what she said.

Most of the “1%” aren’t the rich/influential that they’re accused & derided as. It’s the “0.01%” who actually are what OWS et al complain about.

My graphics incoherence is showing. The map highlighted South Carolina not North Carolina. I've fixed it.
