uh, i figure "comrade chris" makes at least a million (conservative estimate) bucks a year. i doubt he is fomenting violent revolution to overthrow the government of the united states - then he might lose all his goodies. perhaps you might consider two things:

1) he's in the entertainment/news business, and knows what the majority (that would be the poor) are thinking and saying (basically: "help") and is smart enough to see the writing on the wall?

2) perhaps he doesn't sleep well - even tho he's quite comfortable - knowing that a very few people in this country control most of the wealth (either thru inheritance, skill and luck, or maybe skullduggery) and that the majority of the population is hurting. i think we call that, say, a conscience? empathy?
i.e. i can't really enjoy my filet mignon knowing others would be happy just to have a lousy hamburger?

or not
