Oh wait... no rich person will be out in such weather. That is what the peons are for! They get to go into their heated garages and drive their nice warm cars to another heated garage where they are escorted to their nice palatial offices... assuming that they go to something like a job at all.

I apologize... I am just really over inequity in our society. What is the most infuriating is that it all could change, we just don't seem to want it to.
