Someone once said that the reason many Americans defend (or, let's face it, worship) the rich is that they've bought into the illusion that they might be allowed to be rich too one day. Saps. Dug, at $26K, stands proudly for the vultures who used our economy as their personal casino, to the longterm detriment of all of us. Exactly the brainwashed attitude I was talking about in the previous comment.
"Every unbiased economist will tell you that raising taxes right now would be disasterous (sic)." Bullshit, Willie -- unless by "unbiased" you actually mean "agrees with Willie." "Raising taxes" on people in the top 2% is simply going back to the rates they had during the Clinton administration - which sure as hell didn't seem to suppress growth. How about if you and DickWad and others like you get your heads out of your butts -- or at least away from the FauxNews fantasy factory -- and realize you've bought into a serious line of bullshit that leads you to side with the economic vultures that run your fucking lives.
