Congratulations Joe the Plumber

Your fears of waking up tomorrow as CEO of Goldman Sachs and having to pay a dime more in taxes than you would as a pretend plumber are all for naught, as it turns out we live in a country where someone making over $40M in two years gets to pay a tax rate much lower than the chumps coming over to snake his golden toilet.  Your valiant fight for those who have the most was a battle well-fought, but remember, our work is not done until our system dictates those very people be made to not pay a single dime.  Just think about how furious you'll be when you make $40M and are asked to pay even MORE than 13.9% on it - not even fucking worth it, is it?

Keep the faith, Joe!

I remain,
XMASTIME

Waiting on that call from Bain Capital.
