No, Sir, I am not a commie. I like money, I like lots of money, I wish I had more And while I don’t know why I pay as great a portion of my money in taxes as, say, Bill Gates, still, 30%ish in taxes, well, that’s life.
But what is scary is the difference between middle class and rich in 2014. Millionaires Schmillionaires, there are people worth a billion while you, the great unwashed middle class, are up to your eyeballs in debt.

I guess, maybe, I mean nothing in her life story gives you the impression she has those kinda numbers but still, maybe just possibly…?
