    It's sadly a classic tactic to divert blame for those truly at fault, the mega-rich, by setting the middle and lower class on each other like rabid dogs so their class conflict keeps them distracted from the real problem going on. At least now I can add Chipotle and Starbucks to my list of companies to not buy from, along with Papa John's and others.

      They do it because it works. What's more, it's been working for a long time.
