PHILADELPHIA, PA /October 7, 2011/DIVERSE NEWS– So, here we have people protesting. The reason seems to be that 99% of the people do not have the wealth that the top 1% has.
Some basic questions:
Did anyone tell you to procreate?
Do your numbers mean that just because you outnumber some other group gives you the right to have wealth or power?
Some answers:
Since you have the numbers and live in a democracy, encourage your political representatives to vote to tax the top 1% at a rate of 50%.
Then you can redistribute this wealth to the 99%.
Have your reps also vote to take-over business because your group has the numbers. Don’t worry about economic leadership – just take them over and collect 🙂
But remember:
You can save your own money in a pool bank account. Think of all the little things you wasted over the years. Just chump change for each person. But if you add it up at 309254295.24 (as of today minus 1%) and each of you save just $5. a month, in one year, you will have $18,555,257,714.4 – that’s $18.5B. For only $5 a month…
You see, what this really is, is a trick to try and ruin the way the U.S. has been structured since its founding. What should you call this?
