Tax breaks for millionaires and corporations, shared sacrifice for the rest of us. Too bad Obama doesn't have the guts to fight the trend.
All those protests in Wisconsin? Don't mean a thing. Back to the weekend regatta in your private lagoon. Oh. Wait. The Wall Street Journal said what?
Tax the Super Rich now or face a revolution
Commentary: A ‘Super-Rich Delusion’ is leading us to ruin

Not raising taxes on the rich has wide bipartisan support.
Of course - both parties are marching to the same neoliberal drumbeat.
"Not raising taxes on the rich has wide bipartisan support"
In Congress compromised and corrupted by "rich" money. Human-Americans are for taxing the rich.
ed, un able, VRWC, Repugs.
That should just about cover it. Take the rest of the day off.
Damn VLWC.
My accurate VRWC sure beats sterile debating about minutiae that obscure the big picture.
Grimmtons needs his own reality show. I mean, really.
Your supposedly accurate description is the night in which all cows are gray. As a description and as a discussion, it blows.
Being a broken record blows.
Minutiae is all you're good for. You're basically just a wind-up doll who spouts off "VRWC" anytime someone pulls the string in your back by opening up a new thread.
The possibility of a revolution is long gone. Unlike the 30s, the establishment did not expect a tightening of credit and liquidity, but the reverse. If this cluster was going to collapse, the opportunity was in a rapid and vastly more severe deflation brought on by the credit crisis.
Further, calls for revolution from the lower 99% who themselves live in a society in which the main anxiety for the majority is whether or not they can afford a daily Starbucks run is a bit much. Or, get over yourselves and see how the rest of the world lives.
The 'Wall Street Journal' didn't say , some Marke ch commentator did. The guy's pretty much a Johnny One-Note:

Further, holding up public sector unions and their comfortable sinecures secured at the expense of the people by the politicians they purchased before their apple cart was overturned as some kind of plot by the "Super Rich" to stick it to the people is absurd.
Cheerleading the immiseration thesis -- ghost dance for mechanical materialism?
So true. So ing true.
Neither party wants to bite the hand that feeds them.
Affording a daily starbucks is a bigger concern than having a job, being able to afford a mortgage/rent, or coping with out of control medical and education costs? Are you serious?
Sure. It doesn't fit the fairy tale, but then neither does life, and given the shallow self-centered society we live in, a lack of affluence is of greater concern than providing for the basics of life.
Our gripe with the "Super Rich" appears to be that they can afford more nice . Naturally this would be the type of revolution America in the 21st century would birth.
Marcus, like WC, says the UCA Human-Americans should compare themselves to Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Chinese peasants, and STFU, and let the VRWC continue its thieving predations.
Starbucks? how about finding enough money to keep the utilities on? or make the rent? or buy gas a couple gallons at a time?
croutons, like the rest of would be American latte revolutionaries, assumes any critique of his arguments to indicate support for the bogeymen of his conspiracy theory.
You know something is bad when it's supported by all the assholes in congress and not just half of them... the bailout, the Iraq War resolution, No Child Left Behind, and so on.
Wow, that article had just a tad of hysteria, didn't it?
MB, the VRWC is real.
Your placing the blame for the ed up UCA on the citizens is typical shilling for the VRWC, just like WC criminalizing the poor.
