Yeah, it is really, really UNFAIR that George Soros earned most of his money through insider trading and currency speculation whereas I've had to work hard for everything I've earned. Mr. Webb, would you please pass a big tax on Mr. Soros so I and milliions of Americans like me could get a tax credit of say, $5000?

Considering that Soros owns you, I thought not.

Any new taxation that spews forth from DC as a result of Mr. Webb's faux-populism and anti-Walmart smarm, will only effect the earned income of people who don't own 527 corporations. Jim Webb is out to discourage hard work and empower those who sit of the corner with a 40oz bottle and gripe about economic fairness while their neighbors work two jobs.

Democratic Senator Jim Webb embarrassed the state of Virginia

Enough said.

"What makes the "astonishing" estimates so different from the CBO's is that Piketty and Saez toss in the estate tax and gift tax. That might make sense if all taxpayers in the top 0.01 percent died each year and left their businesses and lifetime savings to heirs with incomes as high as their own. In any case, the estate tax is absolutely irrelevant to The Washington Post's effort to promote much higher income tax rates."

I'm not sure what snarky comment would further elucidate the dishonesty behind Jim Webb's set of pet numbers.

I guess brevity is the soul of wit. I'll credit myself with putting the bottom line upfront.

So Senator Webb stirs the fires of class envy by citing data that is factually wrong, for reasons that are morally reprehensible.

I'd say that sums it up pretty nicely :)

The more I hear about our new Senator, the more I want to run every Webb sticker car off the road.

Jim Webb will punch her out and take it, after he finishes his "Texas Death Match" with President Bush.

In other words, empower the constituents of George Soros. How long do you think the rest of us will continue to work two jobs (or more) once we see that we can get further ahead by joining the parasites?

This guy is an idiot: He won't last past 1 Term, and then all the Northern Virginia Idiots (and College Students) that elected him will be looking like fools for supporting such a looserL

Let's Count Webb's mistakes:

1) He a Pervert that advocates sexual molestation of Children (at least in 'fiction'); He stands at odds with the values of the majority of Virinians.

2) He supports "new math"

3) He is a flaming socialist..

I am sure that there are more, but I know there are some of you freepers who currently reside in Virginia that could tell better than I.

When you join the parasites, you further empower Jim Webb (and his hateful ilk). The people who hold the money, hold the power. This is why the Webbies are very worried about how much the top 1% makes.
