One of the Rockefeller Brothers, either John D. III, or Laurence would get their tax bill and would add an extra 10% to it.

So if the rich in New York want to pay more there is nothing preventing them from doing so. The fact they won’t just exposes their absolute Hypocrisy and Mendacity.

I've got a good idea for these folks:

How about a 5%/year wealth tax on assets above $100 million?

What’s stopping them from paying whatever they want over whatever they actually owe?

In fact, it is almost never about making them pay more ... it’s about making you pay more. It is just a sneaky rhetoric to make it seem like they don’t want to be generous with other people’s money when, in fact, that’s exactly what they are all about.

Because it is easier to do when you are being forced to. 8>)

OOHHHGH! THANK YOU SIR, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER!

You just have love it when these morons start to actively destroy themselves! I just wish that while they're at it they would send some money my way. It would maybe start to make up for all the money my taxes have gone to for the looters and moochers all my life... Yeah, like that's going to happen. ;-)
