Another Oprah Show. Another Airing Of Out-Of-Touch Corporate Mediadome.

Oprah had on her financial guru (FICO ass kisser), Suz Ormann. The show highlighted people who were in financial crisis. I thought "Oh good, maybe they'll show how difficult it is for millions of people these days just to pay the basic expenses."

Wrong.

This show highlighted folks who are irresponsible and don't deserve any media attention for their stupidity. Totally aloof as to how reality is for millions of others in this country, these people were the types who were spending like there was no tomorrow. Luxury homes, extra cars, nail salon treatments, clothes spending sprees, etc. etc. Crying while on camera, "Please help me I have a problem."

You're damn right you do. You're clueless. And you don't deserve that money you are sitting on, wasting. Let someone else have it who can appreciate the blessing of financial abundance. Someone who truly needs it.

Where were the families who truly fall into the category "financial crisis"? Where were the people who were paid the shitty slave wages, unable to afford health insurance, having to pay for food or rent with credit cards? Where were those folks who were facing bankruptcy due to health crisis and unemployment/underemployment? What the fuck is wrong with the Oprah empire? Are these people embarassed to highlight this issue?

And who does this Suz Ormann think she is by saying every single one of us, regardless of our financial situation, can get out of that huge credit debt. Yep. Every single one of us. I guess she plans on waving her magic fairy dust over those parts of the country where unemployment is close to 20%, over those folks who have no health insurance and have been hit with illness, over those folks who are trying to support a family on $7.50/hour, all while utility, food, health care and energy costs skyrocket and their income remains stagnate.

Catch a clue, Suz. Not everyone lives the life you and your minion Oprah portrayed today. In fact, the majority do not. But then again, to highlight THAT reality would disrupt you and others who support The System, considering The System happens to work for you and not against you.

I realize I'm sounding abrasive and harsh, but damnit, I have absolutely no tolerance or patience left in me when it comes to this issue of poverty, slave wages and the working poor and towards those who deny its existance or scope. None. Zero. Nada.

Shit. Someone give me a fucking microphone already!
