Minnesota's Wealthy Elite Call For Higher Taxes
Are your arms broken...or in a sling? Is there something preventing you from VOLUNTARILY writing out a check and sending it in to the State or to the organization you think is underfunded? It must be really cool to belong to the Minnesota Wealthy Elite Crowd. They don't have enough to do other than lobby for higher taxes. It's one thing if they think they should pay more, it's another thing if they think everybody should pay more. Arms broken? Dog ate your checkbook? Story HERE:

Several well-off Minnesotans who believe more tax money should be pumped into public initiatives said the state can start with them.
More than 200 wealthy Minnesotans signed a full-page ad appearing Thursday in the Star Tribune asking the state to raise $2 billion for various initiatives by increasing the state's tax burden for high-salary earners.
"We need to invest more in our future," said Joel Kramer, former publisher of the Star Tribune and founder of the think tank Growth and Justice, which organized the "Invest for Real Prosperity" fiscal strategy.

Right on! I'm sick of these "Limo Libs" pretending to lead the charge on "social progress (as they define it) and expecting us to pick up the tab. All the while they exempt themselves from their own B.S. (ala Algore jetting hither and yon pissing about "global warming.")
We need a tax on people who propose higher taxes on everyone else.
