First of all, those people are TOLD to say those things, by their managers,
who are instructed by their managers, and so on and so forth.  Eventually
we get up to people who you might consider to be on an equal with yourself
(although I doubt it, you seem to consider yourself extremely superior),
and they're the ones who set the rules (it MUST be somebody high up, since
the same phenomenon occurs all the way across the entire world (vous voulez
des pommes frites?)).  Second, you have no right to insult people you don't
even know (and if they're lucky you never will).  Hopefully you're not as
much of an elitist as this made you sound (but it seems likely).
