2 posts in one day? Well, I couldn't resist after reading a few recent quotes from Hollywood "stars" about politics, along with all the utter meanness these morons exhibit for anyone that doesn't engage in herd think like they do.
I Googled for the top paid actors and actresses, and came up with numbers for the top 20 in 2006. That is good enough for my purpose. I propose that we simply pass a law for these 20 alone - all income is taxed at 90%.
Oh, sure - we can pass a law for these 20. What, you missed Barney Frank and Fu...er...Chuck Schumer passing a law recently for just the AIG employees that received bonuses? Get with the program.
Here goes. The top 20 actors and actresses earned an average of $23 million each in 2006. Taxed at 90%, this would have netted the U.S. Treasury $414 million for just 20 people in ONE YEAR!! And hey, this tax STILL leaves these imbeciles almost $2.5 million to spend as they like. Perhaps we should pass another law that says they have to donate 90% of the left over income to reducing their carbon footprint - you know, all the pollution they create jetting here and there, living in their multi-million dollar mansions, driving their Maybachs and Escalades...
Wow - that would STILL leave them almost $250K per year - a LOT more than I make!
Hey, let's do this! If we expand the 90/90 rule to ALL rich celebrities, we could probably pay back the trillions of dollars of debt being created by Nobama! And, we reduce class envy - the overriding goal of liberal Democrats. Should pass easily given the current makeup of the executive and legislative branches. We wouldn't even need a Supreme Court battle :)
Actors, musicions, football/basketball/baseball players...they all vote liberal anyway, so they should be on board with this. We all need to sacrifice, right?
Right?
WooHOOO! Let's DO it!!
