Oil took a 10% dive today as speculators started selling off positions
out of fear the top price has been seen.

These speculators should have to pay a huge tax on their profits since
they're causing so many Americans to pay inflated prices at the pump
and causing inflation in every sector of retail.

the right would never permit it. as long as it benefits the rich
they're in favor of it


Sure, Bob, that's it.


fine. you let me know when taxes on the rich get raised, OK?


Top 20% already pay 80% of the taxes.


and their share of national income has skyrocketed. income taxes are
BARELY progressive. we are becoming a plutocracy. the rich own FAR
more of america than they did 20 years ago. the US has the worst GINI
coefficient of any western industrialized democracy

but the fact that this often leads to national collapse...like
egypt...seems not to bother you.


You should get a job and pay some yourself instead of whining. You live
in a country with lots of opportunities and prefer self pity. You are
fat and lazy in the head. Typical fleabagger.


you right wingers think that those of us who objectively evaluate
EVIDENCE are lazy whereas you guys who believe in fairy tales are
realiists

it's like saying the easter bunny is real and those who disagree dont
like eggs.
