Reply #14: The only folks I've seen offering sympathy . . . [View All]

[gratuitous]

The only folks I've seen offering sympathy are fellow do-nothing zillionaires on the teevee. Meredith Viera offering tea and sympathy to Mary Matalin and her Clutch Cargo face this past week on the Toady Show was just plain nauseating. And lost in all of these crocodile tears are the plain facts: If you make $250,000 a year (not a pittance by any measure), you won't pay a dime more in taxes. If you make $1 million a year, you'll pay an additional $22,500. Horrors! The overrich actually having to pay to support the society that provides them the means to make $1 million a year.
