The United States Congress is going to be back and open for business this Monday.
I figure you have until about 3:00 in the afternoon, Monday, to gather up all your extra cash into nice firm rolls, stick the rolls into glass jars with screw-on lids, and bury them in the back yard.
What? You don’t have any glass jars or back yard? You don’t have any extra cash either? You don’t even know anybody who has any extra cash worth burying?
I guess that means Congress already got it all. It’s gone.
So I guess that necessarily means that you won’t be bothered, since its all gone, if income taxes are increased, since income taxes pre-suppose there’s something there to take but they already got it all.
Hey, no problemo here.
And you won’t mind if Congress gives it all away to corporations, banks, and insurance companies, as their revenue is in the crapper seeing as how there isn’t enough money left amongst the citizenry to keep corporate officers going in their accustomed style.
You might, however, ask yourself how it is that a young man of no talent, modest means, negative physical attractiveness and mediocre intellect can nevertheless live a lifestyle that takes about 3 quarters of a million a year to produce, while earning only about $150,000 a year, and still eventually retire with millions — all while producing nothing of any real value?
No, that’s an easy question.
The hard question is why people are attempting to hold up banks, pizza shops, and car washes when they could go into the politics.
