Roseanne Barr: Behead bankers who don’t give up wealth

Comedienne and actress Roseanne Barr told RT’s Max Keiser Saturday that bankers should each give up all but $100 million of their personal wealth or face decapitation.

Barr explained that she had spoken at the “Occupy Wall Street” protests in September.

“I ended up speaking there to announce my candidacy of presidency of these United States as well as prime minister of Israel,” she joked.

Keiser and Barr met on Twitter after she tweeted that “f corporations are people then Goldman Sachs needs to be executed for premeditated mass murder, terrorism, mayhem and grand larceny.”

“Would this be your platform running for president,” Keiser asked.

1. I think she's hit the nail on the head however her methods of dealing with
the uber wealthy will go no where unless the wealthy voluntarily gives up some of its wealth.

2. Does this make her the enemy of the state now?
