TAX the RICH!................from Rico
Yeah! Tax the rich! They're not paying their "fair" share!!
Well, that's what our politicians and the media pound into the heads of anyone foolish enough to not "mute" the volume when their lips are moving.
Our "progressive" tax system is NOT RIGHT, NOT FAIR, and NOT AMERICAN.
When slightly over one million people pay more in taxes than 134 million people combined(phrased another way, the top 1% have a tax burden that exceeds the bottom 95%) it explains how the ignorati [read: voters] have been turned into a cargo-cult sitting on their asses waiting for the magic appearance of their "free" goodies from government.
OR
Look at it this way. There are NOT that many "rich" people and the tax-spenders will soon be going after the average people (because that is where the most money is accumulated)...the average tax payers...to be able to continue 'spreading the wealth' to the tax eaters. [translation: no matter what is said, our taxes are going to GO UP!!!]

Comes the Joker
"Liberals" are almost always the people who believe in hugging trees, saving whales, and no more war. At the same time, they don't seem very inclined to engage in actual thinking. It's so easy to be nice; so hard to be real. That's a "liberal." And now the price of nice: Power in this country goes to the faceless cyphers who produce the best ads. The name out front is a soup can, not a man. We are consumers, not citizens.
Yes, I Know.

In absentia, in memorium.......from Rico
When I am not busy 'missing' the America I remember so well, knew and loved so unreservedly, I do often take the time to 'miss' that noble old lion Britain...as it ONCE was. Sigh.
Both now seemingly 'gone' (ref. the in absentia, in memorium subj. line).
Damn and blast the communists-socialists!
YOU! All free men!
Bloodied and out of ammunition, but unbowed?...form a square and fix bayonets!

The Marine Drill Sergeant noticed a new recruit and barked at him, 'Get your rear over here !
What's your name?"
"Paul," the new recruit replied.
"Look, I don't know what kind of bleeding-heart pansy wansy they're teaching in boot camp today, but I don't call anyone by his first name," the sergeant scowled. "It breeds familiarity, and that leads to a breakdown in authority. I refer to my recruits by their last names only --- Smith, Jones, Baker. I am to be referred to only as 'Sergeant.' Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes, sir, Sergeant!"
"Now that we've got that straight, what's your last name?"
The recruit sighed "Darling, My name is Paul Darling."
"Okay, Paul, here's what I want you to do ....."
