Forget the private 1 percent. It’s the government 1 percent we should be worried about.
“The big government left keeps playing the class warfare card, but for all their murmuring, it is not the top 1 percent that robs the middle-class blind and then sends them the bill.
“Even the worst company in the world isn’t as larcenously extortionate as the politicians who spend and kick back, and then cry poverty and raise taxes. They shout that we need to raise taxes on the rich, and supposing that we do, where will that money go?
“Even if we strip that 1 percent of all their wealth and dress them up in barrels, is there anyone who does not believe that those in power will still contrive to spend it all and run up huge deficits anyway?”
The Cyprus deal stealing from private savings accounts to pay off a government deficit should scare you. If there’s an honest person left in the Congress s/he’ll introduce a bill tomorrow making that sort of thing criminal here. Ah, but is there an honest person left in the Congress? Is there really? You have to wonder.
