Tom Perkins didn't literally mean that rich people are being rounded up and killed.
How on earth do you know what he meant, or didn't mean?
For the sake of discussion: How could an apparently intelligent man pull such an insanely stupid and offensive analogy?
Being Jewish I thought his remark was extremely offensive and an insult to the millions of people killed by the nazis. It is totally and uttely inexcusable.
My rage has nothing, whatsoever, to do with the "pc crowd", which seems to be employed whenever some rich or important person talks shit and then tries to justify it in his or her non-apology (I'm sorry that you're offended about my statement kind of apology).
