Stop calling them elites. Start calling them wealth parasites.

These are not law enforcement (peace) officers these are policy enforcement (police) officers. And the highest priority policy is protecting the people who pay their wages.

It's funny because rich people notoriously do NOT pay the wages of police because they tax dodge so hard that it often crosses the line of illegal, even with all of the extremely pro-mega-rich laws and exemptions that america has.
