The liberal elite have gone ‘john gault’ long ago…

Ever wonder how much Katrina Vanden Heuvel or Paul Krugman or even George Soros pay towards taxes, relative to income? They advocate the working class rich pay 40% on wages, but if the govt tried to take 5% of any of the aboves nest egg, they’d go screaming to their mommas.

This is the distinction between ‘new’ money, and ‘old’ money.

If you are getting paid for real work you have the misfortune of holding the money for less than a year. The liberal elite have held their money for a much greater time, so they believe that it is more ‘their money’ than the slobs who are out there producing.
