It is a good time to reach for the upchuck bag when a politician or billionaire lectures Americans to work hard and play by the rules when the idle rich regard such an attitude with undistilled cynicism. In fact, you could argue that for many, if not most of the 1%, their motto is to get as much pleasure, leisure and opulent comfort out of life by not playing by the rules. The bottom line is that the rules for the 99% are created by the rich, and the rich dont follow the rules; they break them without prosecution (with rare exception). Work hard and follow the rules is one of the biggest nostrums -- a true opiate for the masses -- of the modern US and global oligarchy.
