The New Holocaust?

[The Thriller]

What a poor guy. He's exactly like all those who lost everything and were sent to the crematoria...

With record breaking profits, I'm struggling to see how the rich in this country are being persecuted.

Tom Perkins, cofounder of the storied Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, could have used a forum at San Francisco's Commonwealth Club to row back from his much-maligned comments comparing the treatment of America's wealthy by the left to that of Jews under the Nazis. Instead, the man who provided seed money for Amazon and Google doubled down, telling the audience that "I think the parallel holds."

It was hardly the only bombshell Perkins dropped during a Q&A with Fortune's Adam Lashinsky, provocatively entitled, "The War on the 1%." Asked to offer one idea that could change the world, Perkins proposed a change to Americans' voting rights: "You don't get to vote unless you pay $1 in taxes…If you pay $1 million in taxes, you should get a million votes. How's that?"

Meh? I have a hard time caring what some dumbass reporter feels is spin-worthy from a middle aged rich white guy who makes it a habit of saying stupid things tongue in cheek.

The sad part is, most of what he said is pretty accurate.
