  If you’ll permit Me to take this joke seriously for a moment…

  Good business men give money to charity, and bad business men don’t. This makes bad businessmen richer, and therefore more powerful. If we tax ALL the business men enough money to solve all the world’s problems, then we won’t need charity anymore. Then the good business men will be rich enough to stop the bad business men.

  Anyway that’s called social democracy and it’s… Well, it’s better than unregulated capitalism.

    We can set all the taxes we want, but if we don’t enforce them by closing off the loopholes, then all we get are the bad ones at the top
