Yes, tax the Super Rich. Tax them now. Before the other 99% rise up, trigger a new American Revolution, a meltdown and the Great Depression 2.
We know the Super Rich don’t care. Not about you. Nor the American public. They can’t see. Can’t hear. Stay trapped in their Forbes-400 bubble. An echo chamber that isolates them. They see the public as faceless workers, customers, taxpayers. See GOP power on the ascent. Reaganomics is back. Unions on the run. Clueless masses are easily manipulated.
Even Obama is secretly working with the GOP, will never touch his Super Rich donors. Yes, the Super-Rich Delusion is that powerful, infecting all America.
Here’s how one savvy insider who knows described this Super-Rich Delusion: “The top 1% live privileged lives, aren’t worried about much. Families vacation at the best resorts. Their big concerns are finding the best Pilates teacher, best masseuse, best surgeons, best private schools. They aren’t concerned with the underlying deterioration of America or the world, except in the abstract, because they aren’t directly affected by it. That’s not to say they aren’t sympathetic, aware, or don’t talk about the issues you bring up. They are largely concerned with protecting and enhancing their socio-economic positions, ensuring their families live well. And nothing you write about will change things.”

We’ll have to play them at random times during the year, which will confuse everyone.
Nope.
Actually, that’s right now. 24 feet by tonight.
Oh, dear.
You have to take one before you can hold it.
That cat looks like I feel. I was at a bridal show for most of the day.
LOL! Not the same thing.
Lets take away your stuff, just as a dry run. You don’t mind, do you? That would be “Greedy.”
Oh, boy! I bet you didn’t know there were so many gazillions of expensive things needed for a wedding!
Steve Jobs’ salary is $1. He’s building a modest 5000 sq ft home for cash on property he already owns. He dresses in jeans and turtlenecks. What’s to tax?
My head, and cheque book are spinning!
Take deep breaths and remember how little of it is actually necessary. Bride, groom, witnesses, and a legal officiant ...
Sion, you’re getting married again?
No wonder you’re stressed out!
LOL!
I don’t ever want to get married again.
LOL, you try telling her that!

"You have to take one before you can hold it."
In that case, that's about my limit for anticipation.
By the way, babies in the womb do breathing exercises, aspirating amniotic fluid. It's important that they not overstay their welcome, for eventually it is not as clean as it should be for that purpose.
Happened with one or two of mine, although none of the last four, who were all born well before their due dates.
My parents gave me a budget of $3,000 for my wedding in 1989. (Or, they said, get married in the chaplain's office and go on a trip.) About half went for the reception, but even after buying rings, and a plane ticket for my maid of honor, we still had a little left. Of course, we hadn't been to a wedding expo!
Interesting.
But if the Zombie Sleeps come visit, do you awaken refreshed?
That would be stressful, but... I am not royalty. And that is a Royal wedding. Therefore I am not involved. *\:^)
