Are the Rich Undertaxed? - Michael G. Franc - National Review Online

In Ayn Rand's Epic "Atlas Shrugged"...some of the Bills, Laws and Resolutions had, what I thought, we slightly insane names. I believed they were there as a marker to the stupidity and far reaching of the Government. Now Reid proposes the "Sense of the Senate on Shared Sacrifice"....good lord...me thinks she was on to something!

To highlight the GOP’s intransigence, Reid offered a non-binding resolution. Dubbed the “Sense of the Senate on Shared Sacrifice,” it calls on “those earning $1,000,000 or more per year [to] make a more meaningful contribution to the deficit reduction effort.”

The Hill nailed the real reason Senator Reid interrupted all serious Senate business to debate this meaningless rhetorical exercise in class warfare. “The vote,” the newspaper reported, “will likely be used by Democrats as a way to show Republican resistance to new tax hikes.”"
