so we 'll
all specialize in serving each other

coffee

leg message

blow jobs

wheel chair rides

selling each other back
braces
and magic stones

giving
mutual swimming lessons

all caring and enlightening
face on face
professions

hell we'll all be as useless and gallant
as 17th century nobles
but without
the rental income

maybe
in the long run
we're on the road
to the sun king's
Versailles
only
we'll need
to sleep
under the bridges along the way

---------

but then
there's all this chitter about
growing inequality

-----------
if you don't like the growing
prosperity spread
between citizen households

fine go for em

but
why the focus on high income

go for

extreme net worth

--------

in this light
we need better estimates
on household
net worth

and lets face it
that's what we ought to tax

let the bastards make it as fast as they can

i suggest

we reduce
average pure rentier
passive "real income"
to as close to zero
as possible

we hardly need em
to "save "anyway

though my guess they'll try to preserve their hauls
by
"making their capital work harder"

so????

lets get em anyway

at least
the plus 3 million net crowd

okay
let em have a credit
of up to 50k
and adjust
the base
for the rate of inflation

we're not confiscatory

but their boodle
needs an annual shave

prolly about 3 %
oughta cover our federal debt service
with a little left over
for basic r & d prizes
