25. Well, hey Gene, as far as your bass playing goes . . . you're a really good businessman.

"Detroit Rock City" = most cringe inducing bass line ever.

So much fail in one statement. The 1 percent don't pay 80% of all taxes, and even if they did, it's kind of justified since they own 85% of all the wealth. The Heritage-concocted 50% (I thought it was 47%??) Lie that Romney kept parroting has been debunked so many damned times it's not even worth recycling. The one percent couldn't provide job ONE if no one demanded their product . . . or if no one was able to AFFORD their product (but I don't expect Mr. Witz to connect those dots).

If the one percent didn't exist, you'd have an economy that would be fairer, more balanced, possess a far stronger safety net with universal health care, less concerned about military shenanigans just "because", have FAR LESS chaos and would be able to recover from tough times faster (see: Germany, much of Scandanavia, Canada, etc).

Fuck being nice to rich people who can't see the big picture. If poor people didn't purchase your merchandise, you wouldn't BE rich, stupid. No one HAD to like you.
