Golly, why would people ever protests

We have the Marie Antoinette of the Banking industry:
...one longtime money manager...added that he was disappointed that members of Congress from New York, especially Senator Charles E. Schumer and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, had not come out swinging for an industry that donates heavily to their campaigns. “They need to understand who their constituency is,” he said.
In other words, stay bought you fuckers!

“The top 1 percent of New Yorkers pay over 40 percent of all income taxes...”

True... but that's because you one percenters have salaries that are so high that they compose over 40% of the total income which is eligible for taxation.

Note that you one percenters are NOT paying 40% of ALL the taxes... because lots of people pay lots of other taxes, even though their incomes are too low to meet the minimum level for paying federal income tax.

So suck it up, princess: you make a shitload of money, so you really should pay a shitload of taxes.

PS If you hate taxes so much, why don't you move to Somalia? They don't pay any taxes there.
