The Naked Capitalism blog has the article Gauis Publius: The Rich – “A Class of People for Whom Humans are Disposable”.  Quoting from Chris Hedges, the article explains:

The rich are different. The cocoon of wealth and privilege permits the rich to turn those around them into compliant workers, hangers-on, servants, flatterers and sycophants. Wealth breeds, as Fitzgerald illustrated in “The Great Gatsby” and his short story “The Rich Boy,” a class of people for whom human beings are disposable commodities.

I found out about the Naked Capitalism blog from my previous post, Bill Moyers: The Corporate Plot That Obama and Corporate Lobbyists Don’t Want You to Know About.  That article mentions that the interviewee Yves Smith writes this blog.
