I love this list...but I'd like to expand #9 just a weeeee bit...

Perhaps the top salary of any actor regarless of medium (screen, stage, radio, TV, internet, youtube, print, etc.) should be $45,000 a year...not per production/appearance. That way, they avoid the horrible label of being "rich" which I'm sure they don't want.

Also, since art for art's sake is the vaunted goal of all these professionals, anyone wishing to see/hear/read the "fruits" of these professional's labor, will no longer be required to pay admission. However, they will be asked - most respectfully - for a donation.

Last...there will be no such thing as "rights" to any repeated showings or performances accruing to the "artist". After all...why should they be allowed to drain the pockets of the working poor...of which...now, and hopefully, they will become an integral part?

Just as an afterthought...this #9 includes all - repeat ALL "professional" athletes regardless of sport.

There's way too much fussin' and fightin' in politics, isn't there? In Rodney King's immortal words, "I just want to say, you know, can we all get along?"

Sorry but not every like-minded writer is worthy of his post.

Hawkins has relied on this numbered list schtick for far too long. This simple-minded article would be unworthy of a college newspaper op-ed page and Hawkins hasn’t grasped the ‘brevity is the soul of wit’ concept.

It is a good list.

I would like to see our next GOP President focus the entire Section 8 housing program on well-to-do suburbs and tony urban neighborhoods inhabited by Liberals.

As Jello Biafra once said, “I love blacks and gays and Latinos, as long as they don’t move next door”.

No mention of liberals paying the tax rates that they want to force on everyone?

How about making all liberals use a medical system parallel to the VA, since they love government medical care so much.

It all comes down to the idea that we need to separate them from us, and they can implement their superior ideas in an environment where they are, and we are not, affected by them.
