When in Doubt, Tax the Evil Profits

Democrats in the House know that they can't tax Cadillac insurance plans because the unions have those Cadillac insurance plans. Just what do you think you have been paying for every time you buy an American-made automobile! That means the unions don't particularly like this Democrat idea ... and if the unions don't like it, the idea is all but dead. Democrats would throw kittens into chipper-shredders before they would ever do anything to really upset their precious unions. So now, Princess Nancy and her minions are scrounging to find other ideas to generate revenue. The latest one in the works is a windfall tax on insurance company profits. There you go ... a "windfall tax." Whenever the looters want to legitimize an extra tax on a private sector business they just say "windfall" and their myrmidons fall right into place. After all ... don't we all truly understand that anything not-government is intrinsically evil? And don't we all know that the very quest for profit is a pure and evil manifestation of greed? Let's face it; this money doesn't belong to these businesses anyway, it belongs to the people! Money to the people! So it's perfectly logical to seize it to take care of the people's health care.

This administration and its evil baggage, are really a good news - bad news story. The bad news is that they are hurting and will continue to hurt America and REAL Americans - that is the objective. The good news is they are finally digging their own political graves and I am hoping setting up the end of the radical left Dim socialist party.

Want some money for nothin’
gotta go after the plans of big companies
Leave the unions alone
And the money taxes are free.

Money for nothin
Thats the way you do it
Tax evil big business
and the money is free.
