Morgan Stanley explains how rich New Yorkers and Californians could get really screwed in a Fiscal Cliff deal. Well, the wealthy in both these states voted overwhelmingly for King Putz so they apparently don’t mind. Screw away.

  • If you lose your wealth or you lose your job and you voted for Obama you're getting what you deserve. Idiots.

  • Yhe shame of this is that there are people doing fairly well, that will be affected by this, but didn't vote for Barry.

  • Col. West is dealing with these people and their corruption exactly right. Call them out on the problem, name names, and refuse to give in until the votes can be justifiably verified. Anything less and these cheaters will steal you blind every time. Now if we can just get the GOP leadership to have a little of this courage!

  • May the Good Lord Rain Down buckets of piss on you as well, dickweed. We in Kali that didn't vote for this are feeling like the only ones fighting back! I hate everything about this administration and a "piss on em" attitude like that only serves to divide us further. How about using that great brain of yours to come up with something more productive, 'eh.

    • Piss on 'em. Those who voted for Obama. I am not a dickweed. More of a buttmunch if the butt belongs to a shapely female.

      • Well all righty then, nerves a little raw in our once great state now turned full trashbag socialist. Just so long as your urination falls down the correct chimneys I guess that's OK. Buttmunch? Good one...

  • As it is pointed out in the story. All of the enlightened dim wits in both states voted for barry. Now they are about to reap the rewards of doing so. Where will they park their yachts and hanger their planes?
