Shut Up Billionaires!

REAL Media

Today, we share an opinion peice in the New York Times from billionaire Leon Cooperman.

Cooperman recently cried on TV, literally cried, playing the "victim" over calls to tax the wealthy and the growing hatred and intolerance of the vultures at the top.

In the article embedded below, Cooperman asks us to stop villifying him and his heavenly, saintly, wading in seas of cash pals. Poor guys!

These whiny, crying, don't you dare touch my wealth (wealth that we create) billionaires should be vilified even more. Vilified day and night until their class is history.

They deserve no respect from us and should have the wealth they steal from society, wait for it ... RE-DI-STRIB-U-TED!

Stop your crying Leon. Move aside!

Opinion | Leon Cooperman: A Wealth Tax Is a 'Dead End'

In " The Billionaires Are Getting Nervous " (editorial, Nov. 10), you characterize me, among others, as a "perturbed plutocrat" short on "finesse" who needs to "get a few things straight." Perhaps we are not alone in that. By ignoring the details of the candidates' wealth-tax proposals, which you portray as "innovations that require careful consideration," you miss an important point.
