Ted Rall for November 03, 2014

The 1% ’ers (and the next 9% ’ers) should be having more babies. They will grow up into productive taxpayers that will contribute far more than they ever receive from the government.

Who are we supposed to be hating in this installment? All Ted Rall strips are based on a solid foundation of hatred, sometime it’s hard to tell who Ted wants us to hate.

He’s ’tooning a reported FACT. Most of the rest of us really cannot afford to raise a child.

Wait until the Alpha Double Pluses (self-designated) start to clone themselves… that should be interesting.

“Notice how certain people, like Putin or a few others you can doubtless think of for yourself, keep on with youthful vigor into their 80’s? It’s not all burning themselves out with steroids.”.Scott Adams wrote a humorous blog several months ago about these possibilities. He imagined a scene in the near future in which Rupert Murdock revealed the secret of his amazingly rejuvenated appearance. He showed the “bleed room” on his luxury yacht to some fellow One-percenters. Young underling volunteers donated their blood and Murdock received the factors within that gave him incredible strength and vigor.

You should specify “instead of the current tax code” since Democrats want this IN ADDITION TO the current tax code.

“So if we had a consumption tax, the 1% would be paying 100Xs or more in taxes than the bottom 20%.”.

I don’t know about that, Churchy. They’d still find a way to get out of it!
