Jane Fonda: All the rich people I know are saying tax us Published: 11:53 AM 12/13/2011 | Updated: 12:03 PM 12/13/2011 By Nicholas Ballasy
Video aerobics instructor Jane Fonda told HLNs Joy Behar that all the rich people she knows are saying, Tax us.
Behar asked Hanoi Jane, What do you make of the fact that when you know, when people say, Gee, these very, very mega rich people should pay their share, should be taxed also and stop getting tax breaks, and other people are like, No, you cant do that. Its so wrong to tax these rich people.
And oftentimes thats right and oftentimes there are poor people that are saying that, Fonda responded. And the only answer that I can come up with is because, it being America, those not-so-rich people feel some day Im going to be rich and I dont want to be taxed.
I think that we will end up taxing the rich, Fonda added. And thats just fine by me and all the rich people I know, like Ted Turner and Warren Buffet and Bill Gates, youre, theyre all saying, Tax us.
The exchange occurred on the December 9 edition of The Joy Behar Show.
Fonda also talked politics with CNNs Piers Morgan on December 8, saying she wishes President Barack Obama would be stronger in office.

What to shut this bunch up, tell them you are going to tax their ASSETS and their income...
NIxon, Reagan - the point still holds.
Like all these ‘more-money-than-brains’ Hollywood jerks, she must think that everyone on earth is just as stupid as SHE is.
This saggy-breasted Communist traitor harridan will be the first to pay the jizyah and wear the burkha when the Muslims come to take her scalp.
Jane, just STFU and write the checks No one is stopping you.
There are a considerable amount of charities that are far more efficient than the Fed Gov in service to the needy, why not just start funding them???
This is more malodorous bloviate!

Excellent Video on the Tax-the-Rich Mentality.
All the rich people she knows ARE being taxed. They pay very little because their accountants find copious deductions and loopholes and keep lots of dough offshore. Thereby ensuring their clients pay very little in taxes.
So...this "Tax us" horse puckey is just that. Have all these rich people call their 'people' and say...cut the crap. There. Done.
I'm guessing this will not happen.
That being said ... if anyone wants to contribute to the gubermint they are welcome to write a check .... just keep your !@#$%^&* hands out of my pocket
I agree with both of you...private charities/businesses always make better use of money than the government does. I was just pointing out the fact that there is nothing stopping her from doing what she is clamoring for. It is akin to Jane standing at one of those automatic supermarket doors and screaming “let me in” after it slides open.
Why wait to be taxed, Jane?

Really???
Then these hypocrites can start by making their tax returns public so we know exactly WHERE (loopholes) to tax to nail them.
“What to shut this bunch up, tell them you are going to tax their ASSETS and their income...”

Indeed.
A huge distinction, which the vast majority of people miss, in any discussion of taxation.
Well all my poor friends say lets all go and TAKE 100% of all the Millionaires Cash and Property. So what does that prove? some of them are Vietnam Vets,including myself and we would all like to give that pig Fonda A swift Kick in the ass!
Gee Jane it is as simple as checking the right box and sending it in but you and the left don’t really want that do you you want everyone who makes anything to be taxed to death to pay for your ill conceived hair brain ideas.
This is easy, write the check.........
BINGO!
I am all for anyone who wishes to pay higher taxes personally.
They should just get out their checkbooks and put their money where their mouth is.
We don’t need to legislate it. Just send the government more than required.
From what I know about Hanoi Jane the opposite must be true.
Good ole' Jane. Still tilting at common sense and the common man.
