1. No -- Redistributing Assets is Not Required
and would involve some fifth amendment questions in any case.

Just going back to taxing income on a more progressive scale is enough to do the trick.

2. Yeah, I wouldn't mind some wealth being redistributed my way.
I hear money is going to be thrown from helicopters.

6. Are you a Wall Street Bank or an auto company CEO? If not, fergit it.
I'm actually thinking about e-mailing Hank that "I'm a bank, now, Hank -- I just decided, I'm a bank from now on" -- and see if he'll send me a billion or two. Can't hurt to try.

3. Stop it with your War on Christmas. Christmas isn't about poor, inferior, icky people.
It's about expensive dye jobs, fancy clothes, parties, and the hottest video games.

8. So it's only a "small" War on Christmas, huh commie? Huh? Huh?
Only a "redistribution" within your "family". More of your libral soshalist comunistic anti-family values that you teach your children. Hello?! My family gets its gifts from the Lord God Santa, not "redistribution of parental income" to our lazy unemployed children.
