Something like what happened in the movie Assault on Wall Street needs to happen, perhaps even on a larger scale akin to concentration camps for the elitists who merely ensure they remain rich while the poor struggle to keep them rich.

I didn't read the article, because the very idea of rich people being persecuted to the extent that the jews were is ridiculous. So I don't really know how he's connecting the two events. Then again, I'm sure it's no different than the christian persecution complexes, or really much different than any spoiled child being told that s/he isn't going to be spoiled anymore. End of the world because some people are trying to keep them from getting every single thing they want.

What a fucking asshat. "We'd like you to stop fucking over the less fortunate and perhaps pay more taxes" =/= "Fire up the ovens and gas chambers".

Yeah, he's kinda right, you know, in that the Jews were Germany's "1%".

Well, that's what the Germans wanted at first too. But the Jews just wouldn't budge.

And by "wouldn't budge" you mean they didn't want to get into the cattle cars?

No. I mean like they would not be a bit less shameless in their domination of the German economy, Culture and media.
They were also not very interested in parting with their wealth, but unlike these guys, who come from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, Jews stood there with a solid ethnic identity that was seperate to the core from the German identity, which made them apathetic as to the condition the ethnic Germans were in post WWI. They simply didn't care, they were only busy with further establishing their place in the status quo.
Of course, there were also Jews that were very patriotic, and had willingly assimilated into the German identity(Like the writer of "Haßgesang gegen England"), but those were very few and often reviled by their Jewish peers.

It's always a sigh of desperation when a group equates what's happening to them with what happened to others during the Holocaust. Especially when the situation holds no similarities at all.
