I agree. People who have smartly planned to drive down workers wages, bust
unions, export jobs to sweat shops in foreign countries, and buy
politicians through massive campaign contributions should be rewarded for
their hard work and foresight. Said politicians should reward their major
campaign contributors by decreasing the taxes on outrageous incomes,
capital gains, and stock market speculation.
As Leona Helmsley put it, "Only little people pay taxes." 'Cause little
people haven't mimicked the behavior of the rich as noted above. When will
they learn?
