From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2012-01-02:

"Disdain for the uber-rich was unthinkable until ---

"It wasn't the crash of 2008 that led to their fall from grace, nor exposure of the greed and stupidity that required a massive public rescue. It was their graceless reaction to the bailouts: no apologies, remorse or gratitude -- even faked; just more arrogance, bonuses, takeovers, foreclosures. Wall Street begged to be occupied. The Unrepentant Financier could have been Time's Person."

-- Rick Salutin, The decline of deference, Toronto Star, Thursday, Dec. 29, 2011.
