There is a war going on in our society, and I am not referring to the fae wars or the constant barrage of unwarranted attacks against my brethren from the Were-Council. I am talking about a war being waged by some of the thickest blooded and most powerful magicked vampires in the hidden places of the world against the hard-working monster families of those things Which Go Bump In the Night.

The reality is, many of our Darkness’ Vampires are on the warpath. They want more, more, more. Their greed and bloodlust has no end, and apparently there is very little concern for those of us on the bottom, for those among us who get in the way of the accumulation of more and more blood and flesh and more and more power. They go so far as to poison the people against us! To cause strife for their personal gain!

My brothers, my sisters: in the year 2020, the top 1 percent of all blood earners in the Night hoarded 33 1/2 percent of all blood extracted from the human populous.

I repeat myself: The top 1 percent hoarded 33 1/2 percent of all acquired blood -- more than the entire bottom 50 percent of monsterkind. And yet: That is apparently not enough. The percentage of blood going to the top 1 percent has nearly tripled since the 1970s.

In the mid-1970s, the top 1 percent earned about 8 percent of all Blood. And the rest of us received more of our fair share! But in the 1980s, that figure jumped to 14 percent. And in the late 1990s, that 1 percent earned about 19 percent. And now today, as the manufacturing and hunting class of monsters collapse, downtrodden under the heel of Big Blood: the top 1 percent steals 33 1/2 percent of all blood and flesh -- more than the bottom 50 percent.

Today, if you can believe it, the top one-tenth of 1 percent earns about 3.5 quarts of every gallon of flesh and blood harvested.

[Editor’s note:  We stopped listening to Vlad at this point, but you get the idea.]
