The sheer arrogance of these people......the "DO you know who I am" crowd......
CBS’ Norah O’Donnell on Friday thought it would be a good idea to try to explain how taxes work to Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), the GOP’s top “budget guru.” Needless to say, for anyone who understands the difference between a tax cut and a tax increase, she ended up looking rather foolish.
The Republican congressman kindly and calmly gave her a 30-second lesson in the basics of taxation.
“So you think that money is the root of all evil?” said Francisco d’Anconia. “Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them.” … “Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?” - Atlas Shrugged
