Chances are the Koch brothers hired people to capture shaky cell phone videos at the local Wal-Mart just so they and Mitt Romney can shoot 30 year old Scotch out their noses laughing at poor people.

Leave it to the increasingly clownish Washington Post to publish this ridiculous bit of navel-gazing that seriously compares black Friday shopping to “The Hunger Games.”

@lukeoneil47 great piece Luke, you articulated exactly why these have always made me uncomfortable

If you’re uncomfortable, maybe just zip up your flannel onesie and drop another marshmallow in your hot chocolate.

Progressives shame the poor by writing sanctimonious drivel like this that assumes the poor lack the wherewithal to not act like animals. That and pretentiously assuming only poor people shop on the day after Thanksgiving.
