Some may choose to characterize envy as hatred. It sells newspapers.
I’ve been thinking about hatred a lot lately. Yes, something always explains it. However, Wall Street has earned it’s current standing.

totally agree. I can’t STAND the Yankees (being a Minnesota fan) but I can’t WAIT to go to NY in a few weeks for a nice 3 day weekend in Manhattan!

it’s the Yankees, the Jets, and Wall Street.
This is mostly about the Yankees, isn’t it.
