2G2D watch: These idiots still haven't gotten it yet...

Indeed, "the wail of the 1%".

“I’m not giving to charity this year!” one hedge-fund analyst shouts into the phone, when I ask about Obama’s planned tax increases. “When people ask me for money, I tell them, ‘If you want me to give you money, send a letter to my senator asking for my taxes to be lowered.’ I feel so much less generous right now. If I have to adopt twenty poor families, I want a thank-you note and an update on their lives. At least Sally Struthers gives you an update.”

Oh my.

We'll we cant all be Joe Biden when it comes to giving to charity.

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden and his wife gave an average of $369 a year to charity during the past decade, his tax records show.

Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama's campaign today released 10 years' worth of tax returns for Biden, a senator from Delaware, and his wife Jill, a community college instructor. The Bidens reported earning $319,853 last year, including $71,000 in royalties for his memoir, Promises to Keep: On Life and Politics.

well, that was a non sequitur

then again, libertarianism is pretty much the definition of a political non sequitur

I'm just suggesting that maybe hedge fund fat cats are taking a cue from our VP.

the fact that these companies would have failed without billions of dollars in taxpayer injections seems completely lost on everyone in this article

There ya go. Fuck charities when people need it the most. I'm more concerned about my taxes. I can't buy the Lamborghini I was looking at this year because of the taxes.

Cry me a mother fucking river.

I'm prepared to give back 90% of my $1 Million bonus. Can I get that million dollars now, plz?

[Joe Molotov]

No one complains when Julia Roberts pulls down $25 million per movie or A-Rod has a $300 million guarantee.

This just in: No one complains about A-Rod making a lot of money when he fails to produce. The complaining you may have thought you heard were just illusions, it's all in your head. Woooo!

[Kestastrophe]

according to their logic, that extra money that is left over from charitable contributions should lead to more trickle down

I think performance and compensation have been so divorced from each other for so long, they really are incapable of understanding it.
