Ah C'mon! Whats destroyed if they take money from a rich guy so a punk who doesn't work can put 22 inch rims and spinners on his ride?
Where's your sense of fairness and style FRiend? /s
Years ago the demoncrats push through a luxury tax on yachts. Killed the yacht manufacturing. People lost jobs. Liberals just don’t get real economics.
He can start with this list: http://www.forbes.com/lists/2008/54/400list08_The-400-Richest-Americans_Rank.html
"Wealth" is not something that you can "spread around" like butter on toast or manure on a corn field, else, it ceases to be wealth and becomes "spoils" or "booty". The libs see everything as belonging to them, and thus is theirs to distribute to the masses at their whim. They DO NOT like individual achievement and will stomp it out with full vigor, little realizing that it is individual achievement that has gotten them where they are. Imagine, if you would, talking to some lib Oscar winner and saying that they should give up their Oscar for individual achievement in their profession and giving it to the grips and gaffers, food service and cosmetics people, after all THEY worked hard, too. I doubt the actor or actress would be very willing to do that............
This is being talked about on Glenn Beck right now.
Glenn has picked out a new word that has entered the political vocabulary: CHANGE-EL-ISM
I believe that this new word was substitution of socialism or liberalism for the word change.
Tax the Rich
Feed the poor,
Till there ain't no
Rich no more...
In other words, all this will do is deplete the rich. It will do nothing but provide a temporary favor for the deadbeats - er, I mean poor. One is reminded of the grasshopper and the ant.
They’re doing the same thing to Mike Sodrel in Indiana.
Like yourself, perhaps? Wouldn't it be interesting to check his taxes and see if he pays his "fair share." His colleague Ted Kennedy has never paid his fair share.
And even if by some miracle Mr. Frank does pay his fair share, it is highly likely that he isn't willing to go beyond that even though he claims the government needs more cash. There's nothing stopping him or the rest of the Liberal elites from paying more than their fair share. They're rich. They could afford it. They choose not to pay more. If their not willing to "spread the wealth," why should we, who can't afford it, be forced to pay?
That wasn't George Harrison it was Ten Years After.
More ‘Atlas Shrugs’ mentality.
Incredible...
Plenty of rich people to tax?.....Is that what this is all about, Elmer Fudd?....
Hey Bawny!....No more stupid thoughts from your pin head brain!....PLEASE!
