: PrawfsAdvocating Terrorism
By Dan Markel, Ethan Leib, Rick Garnett, Matt Bodie, Paul Horwitz , Steve Vladeck, and Orly Lobel
Call me crazy, but isn't this advocating terrorism against the United States?
And why does Glenn Beck keep saying people have been "disenfranchised"? I don't understand. Didn't more people vote in this election than any other -- the highest percentage since 1960? Why wasn't he talking about this in 2000, when the candidate who got 500,000 more popular votes was denied a state recount by the Supreme Court? I know Beck expresses disbelief at what he's hearing, and he's talking about some "hypothetical" in 2014, but methinks he doth protest too much. Even the folks at Little Green Footballs are calling this irresponsible.
By the way, that's Stephen "Going Galt" Moore who says that an upper tax bracket of 90 to 95% would mean you pay 90 to 95% of your income in taxes. Actually, it would mean that you'd pay 90-95% on all income you make over the top threshhold (say, $250,000) -- anything below that would be taxed at a lower rate. Of course, Obama has merely talked about raising the rate of the top tax bracket to Clinton-era 39.6% levels. And yet, somehow we are threatened with socialism.
I don't want to go off on a rant here, but just a warning to those of you who cry "Socialism!" in a crowded theater. Some people might take you a little more seriously than you expected.
HT: Sadly, no!
