As a pol, [Warren]’s more of the “screamer” type, yelling at business owners about how they didn’t succeed on their own, or shouting about how much we need higher taxes.

She's an economic idiot, so she should fit right in with the rest of the gang in DC. I still don't understand, however, why the GOP doesn't nail these SOB's when they start complaining we need taxes on the rich because they "don't pay their fair share". Absolutely correct: The top 10% of the people foot almost 70% of the tax bill. So if you by into this level-the-playing-field BS, the rich should have their taxes cut while the 50% who pay no taxes should have theirs raised. As far as I'm concerned, if you have nothing in the game (i.e., don't pay taxes), you don't get to vote. Man, just think how that would change the dynamics!

I’ve heard somebody say that just as we shouldn’t have taxation without representation, we shouldn’t have representation without taxation.

And yes, that would REALLY change American politics. It would be a fatal blow to Cloward-Piven.
