• Only the dumbest MFers would believe that socialism will work THIS TIME. We have heard it time & again, & it always fails. ALWAYS.

• YET...This new president...who hates the rich...has TWO homes in St. Tropez.

• The rich will be fleeing in droves, if they haven't already. We should prepare.

  Get those scams ready, folks. Dumb rich people headed our way!

  Hey, think Roman will have to leave?

• Yes, this time it will be different pigs running the animal farm

• I read somewhere that this new tax on rich people will include people with a million in the bank, not high earners. That's the group our dems will go after next. Once they've taxed high earners and failed to fix the deficit, they will have to attack those that have worked hard and saved to pay for their follies. Work hard, save money to pay for your own retirement and guess what? The government screws you to pay for other's failure to plan. Our clowns are using Europe as an economic role model so watch for this to come here next.

  • I read the article in Reuters. It's a 1.3 milion Euro net worth. So...yeah.

  • *snickers* Ah, yes. The playbook of the left/socialists/progressives. Tax heavily, lose money as people stop doing the things they were being taxed for, wonder why "utopian" plan failed, repeat.

  • Screw the 401K.... I'm sinking coffee cans with Krugerrands in my back yard!

    • "A hoarder! A capitalist! The assets must be seized for the good of the state."

      Socialist assholes.

      Not that they actually said this in the article. I didn't read it. But I didn't have to, either. I know what socialists do and how it ends.

    • MGAP, you can be sure the IRS will be equipped with metal detectors.

      • OH! Another shovel ready job!

        • Sweet, economy fixt!!!!! ;)

• Via la stupid...Once again France show the way backwards.....assbackwards

• No John?? I got it, CORPORATE GREED!!

  • Please, not even as a JOKE!

• France. The country that has never won a war they were involved in except their own civil war, and only part of the people won that war. They have not "discovered" bath soap or shampoo. The women do not know what a razor is nor how to use one.

  They have been a half-assed country for a couple of centuries now, dependent on us, the US of A, since WWI and they will not change. To hell with them, let the country fall on its face, I'm tired of my tax money being spent to help those who are too damn arrogant, or stupid, to help themselves.

  • In fact, France surrendered to both sides in WW II...it figures.

• This time it will work for sure! - Wiley Coyete

  • It's "coyote" there bobon. I hate to be the spelling police but since I are one I thought I'd set you straight. A coyote is not only an ugly assed wild dog in the southwest, it is a common term for those of us who have anglo and Mexican blood running in our veins.

    • LOL - I cannot believe I misspelled coyote (notice Whiskeyriver that I didn't misspell "misspelled" lol). I must start paying better attention...

      • Nah, none of the rest of us pay much attention either. Unless we want to be a smartass. (teehee)

      • Not only did you misspell "coyote," but his name is actually Wile E. Coyote.

        • Actually, I was going to try to cover it by saying Wiley Coyete is my neighbor and he always says that for some reason, but you guys are too sharp for that, lol. Damned Acme computer...

        • Lol! You bet we are and I have a genuine Acme 'puter testor to prove it!

        • "Super Genius"

• See France. France-France-France. See France Tax. Tax France Tax! See the Rich French,. Rich-rich-rich. See them run. Run rich run! Watch France collapse. Collapse-collapse-collapse! Watch Obama emulate them. Stupid-stupid-stupid.

  • So what's your point, CO2?

  • I want to say they will regret this, but RKae had it right yesterday. When it all goes to crap? They will simply place the blame on the very people who kept telling them that this would not be a good idea.
