Poor Gloria Vanderbilt

She never experienced the joy of being old and sick in a homeless shelter, illegally filmed by hidden cameras in the showers, bathrooms and locker room, exposed in her infirmity to her son's colleagues and anyone else who wants to watch and can hack the cameras.

Isn't that what all the privileged people who are allowing this to happen to Boston's most impoverished little old ladies want to think? That it's funny, that it's fun, that it's flattering and enviable to be treated like this?

She seemed like a nice enough lady.  I'm sure she wouldn't be offended by my mentioning her in this context.  The sickening hypocrisy of the world's power structure was not her fault.
