Impose A $20-million Limit On Accumulated Personal Assets!

In the interest of preserving the strength and social integrity of the American Nation I propose that in addition to an equitably progressive tax rate a limit of $20,000,000 (twenty-million dollars) be imposed on all personal assets and that any assets in excess of that amount be confiscated by the Internal Revenue Service. This would ensure the continued ability to acquire and retain reasonable personal wealth while eliminating the harmful potential of excessive wealth and the emergence of a financial aristocracy which could operate to undermine the nature of our democratic republic.

In addition to the above, I propose that laws be enacted to finance all federal and state elections with public money and that no candidate or elected official be permitted to accept any form of contribution or gift, whether money or anything of value, from any constituent, political supporter or other person or entity. The only exception being acceptance of ordinary and unexceptional gifts from relatives or close personal friends. Any violation of this proscription shall be subject to severe criminal penalties.


Now that would make for a GREAT reality show. Lets watch the Hollywood crowd and the politicians melt down.

What? ... no 17 million dollar wedding for kim?
I can see the horror story coming out of stephen king....
And I am pretty damn sure the politicians would fight that one tooth and nail...

I propose that all brain dead retards be euthanized.

You're first on the list, Mike.

What he just suggested is Better than what you want which is kings and queens to rule the world.

I think maybe you would be first in line over the OP in your own little kingdom

How on earth did I know that you would think this was a good idea?

Well, thanks for being honest enough to confirm what the Left's ultimate goal is. Brought some of the rest of the Bolshevik cockroaches out of the woodwork too, I see. I hate to break it to you, but that's not going to happen, except in Leftist dreams; you see, we have a little thing called the constitution, and it won't allow that.

Are you sure they won't and can't justify it using the Commerce Clause? Seems they have justified making the poor purchase unaffordable health insurance. I don't think it would be as difficult to accomplish as you seem to. A few more years of Obama and who knows what they can do? Especially, years that he doesn't have to worry about campaigning.

That's fair. We could be more fair if we also limited--

--books to 100 pages,

--peoples life spans to a maximum of 80 years,

--sex lives to once per week,

--a maximum person's height at 5 feet 10 inches,

--homes to 2,000 square feet or 5 rooms (whichever is smaller),

--churches to 200 members.​



Air...Each person is allowed 3000 breaths a day...this will be monitored
any person that gets close to that limit and you will have to switch to an oxygen tank.
You will have to pay for the tank under Obama care and you get one tank per month.

Toilet paper.A family of 4 will be allowed 1 roll per week.

While we are here...Each person is limited to 4 flushes of the toilet bowl per day...
Sorry if you had some not so fresh Sushi.

Wow I'm kinda digging where this is going. :lol:
 
Congratulations to MikeyK. He just got NOMINATED. So now it's official:

Douchey OP of the year award contender.

Maybe even a contender for the Darwin Award. Natural selection ain't just limited to self-inflicted physical damages.

Sooo MikeK -- We know you're lurking around.. Does that apply to corporations and businesses? Or do you support economically raping individuals and encouraging the hoarding of wealth by businesses? Because if you don't think this thru -- It's gonna look more like Idiocracy than Socialist Nirvana?

Or am I expecting too much thought on your part?

I have two questions:

1) Where in the hell did he run off too, after starting this ridiculous thread?......He's up here, but doesn't seem to have the guts to come back and back up his Bolshevick bullshit.

2) How did he come up with the 20 million figure limit?.......Seems he just pulled it out of his boney ass, and tried to run with it.

Oh well, let's see if he has the cajone's to come back and back this bullshit up.
 
One of 2 things Jester..

1) He's an academic that is accustomed to being able to fertilize young minds with largely unchallenged bullshit and didn't expect a challenge..

2) It's a ploy used by the leftists on all open message boards "to tag" their territory with socialist gospel. It occupies the normal folks and stalls efforts on other threads where they are under attack and need a tactical distraction..

I think likely #2 because Mikey was going after greedy people of Christian faith just this morning... He's a busy dude..

He's a coward........He put me on ignore long ago, when I called him out and abjectly hammered him when he called for the repub politicians in Wisconsin to be dragged from their homes and tortured........So, he won't take me on, but he could at least have the balls to come back and defend his thread.

It applies to personal assets, which are the fuel of greed. If you own and control a multi-billion dollar corporation your personal assets are limited to $20 million. So you might as well turn over the business to someone else, retire and enjoy your $20-million lifestyle.

Well the prodigal tool is back..

How generous of you to let me sell my $10Bill corp for $20Mill...

So I "might as well turn over the business to someone else"????? What - you think real life is just like Kindergarten?

....."AND RETIRE"??? In other words, not contribute to society by forming ANOTHER business or service.. Just withdraw and suck down your winnings. You don't know what drives successful people do you MIKEY?

Hey -- I think it was better for your ego when you were hiding out MikeK.....

What I find most interesting about this conflict is most of you water-carrying Tories don't have a pot to piss in and probably will never manage to pay off your credit card balances, yet you passionately defend the financial gluttonly of a small number of conniving exploiters who regard you as little more than useful idiots.

How do you account for that? What is it that motivates you?
 
Gee, Mike...what WOULD the country's billionaires do if any legislative body were to pass such an utterly stupid law? I'll give you a hint, Sparky. Since most of them already have residences in other parts of the world you'd see an exodus of billionaires and their money from the US that would reach biblical proportions. Who would then support the roughly 50% of Americans that don't pay any income tax?

You don't really think any of this stuff through...do you, Mike?
If you believe absconding is that easy it's you who isn't thinking.

One thing you should consider is how many of the super-rich of the Gilded Age bugged out when FDR imposed a 91% tax on them? The answer is none. Why do you suppose that is?

Next question is where would they go? What countries do you know of where billionaires enjoy the kind of protections and accommodation by government as they do here? But let's not just assume that getting away would be as simple as you seem to think it might.

Aside from the fact that there presently is such a thing as an exit tax for expatriating individuals and corporations, if something as radical as the proposed confiscation were enacted let's assume it would be accompanied by equally radical measures to prevent unencumbered bug-outs. Measures such as frozen assets and expediently suspended passports, etc.

After all, we are talking about a radical change in policy.

You could give it to a relative. Or, if you wish to perform a gesture of exemplary economic benevolence you could transform your corporation into a proft-sharing entity and endow the employees whose labor produced your success with something of real value.

So I "might as well turn over the business to someone else"????? What - you think real life is just like Kindergarten?
Things could be a hell of a lot worse!

....."AND RETIRE"??? In other words, not contribute to society by forming ANOTHER business or service.. Just withdraw and suck down your winnings. You don't know what drives successful people do you MIKEY?
Then do whatever you please. Just be sure your personal assets do not exceed $20-million or you'll pay a fine in addition to the confiscation.
 
Goodbye to Private Colleges, Specialty Med institutions, Major League Sports, All symphonies and most arts, ect, ect.
Why would that be so? If you are a philanthropic billionaire whose personal fortune is about to be reduced to $20-million, why not endow the rest to the charities and institutions of your choice? Perfect opportunity.

Ask John Lennon why he was in NYCity..
I can't. He's dead. His wealth killed him.

"That's one for you --- nineteen for me"
"'Cause I'm the taxman --- yeah"
Nobody likes paying taxes. Especially the filthy rich.

Even long-haired, dope-smoking, guru chasing, peace loving hippies from the 60s get this...
Especially those with billions of dollars.

Congrats for pointing out the EXTREME Socialist threat hiding in the Democratic Party.. At least your honest in your own demented way.. Can't you Clinton Dems leash up these morons before they destroy your party? Quit bitchin' about the Tea Party and clean up your own house..
It's a shame that you are at this stage of your life incapable of understanding that the introduction of certain extreme socialist policies is the only hope America has to avoid becoming a fascistic plutocracy.

There are places like this you can move to if you think it's so bad here. I'll throw in the first $100 to start a fund to buy your ticket.

You don't get to start a thread --- dissappear --- and then ask a lot of questions.. Uh Uh.

You should SEE the "pot I piss in"... You'd be impressed. Trust me -- we're mortal political enemies.
