If we just let the rich live tax-free, then the rest of us will be able to work for them as domestic servants, gardeners, and so on. Once the minimum-wage laws are repealed, then everyone can qualify for the earned-income tax credit.
See how prosperous we'll all be? Just like the Wall Street Journal editorial said: Lucky ducks, everyone.
Expect to hear this one sometime soon as well... "The recession would have been worse if it weren't for the tax cuts."
