Billionaire plutocrats like Tom Perkins (see our post on February 14) are drawing ridiculous and desperate analogies between broad public support for reducing income inequality and the Holocaust. The true danger to our democracy is the concentration of enormous wealth in the hands of a relative few, who then use that wealth to purchase politicians and policies that further enrich them and to suppress middle class counter-action through voter suppression and union busting. A political system that is awash in the money of tycoons will produce outcomes that further erode the middle and working class in this country.
