The secret to being rich is being rich

 It may seem too fantastic to be true, but the top 400 people with the highest income in the nation end up paying a lower tax rate than the next 1,399,600 wage earners.  This according to the magazine Businessweek.  News today, JP Morgan HMFWIC got a raise, 19 million, a nice raise.
Lets see, to grow the economy we need to make their tax breaks permanent, greater, broader, and ensure they can pass the wealth on to their kids to ensure the multigenerational money-royal aristocratic plutocracy now in power of corporate America will flourish.  OK grunts, stop dreaming, pay your taxes.

  1. I don't know why you are so bitter Fringe. It is obvious that if we don't continue their tax breaks, they will not have the money to hire us out as nannies, gardeners, janitors, cooks, and substitute skeet shooting targets. If that happens, where will that leave us? Poor and destitute without any moral compass. You need to acknowledge that the rich are different from you and me, and need proper love, attention, and numerous transfer of wealth payments.....

  2. Skinny,
    Sorry, your right. Somewhere there are hoards of millionaires huddled in their countryclub dinning rooms at their wits end that they are not billionaires, fearing they may never be billionaires. It's a cruel world.
