Tom Toles for September 13, 2017

100% True and accurate!

It’s so strange that all the rest of us are not doing anything with only about 500 families making us all penniless for their sake. That means a whole lot of us are spending most of our incomes supporting the 500 parasite and believing that we are not trying hard enough. Why are we tolerating this?

DREAMS – {rhyme}

Toles draws guys of the Monopoly game

who own the Boardwalk’s hotels,

and who dream in dreams not quite the same

as those in the Dreamers’ hells. …

… The formers dream of pocketbooks fat;

the latter have nightmares: spat out, ker-splat.

=======

No one is more insincere at being sincere.

Little margin-man has it exactly right.

This is the goal of some of our super wealthy ; to be “royalty lite”. Endowed with never-ending wealth for themselves and their heirs through repealing the estate tax. And removing the Johnson Amendment from the law creating 501-c-(3) non-profits, so that they can make their unlimited political donations tax-free. Yes, you read that right.

DECEIT – {limerick}

Trumpists fib then retreat

behind their walls of deceit,

where their hullabaloo

tricks the gullible few

who Believe the nonsense they bleat.

======

Maybe when they are Trillionaires, trickle down will start. I’m sure they just need enough money to start the great Republican utopia where the rich give their money to the poor. I bet the planet will cool down too, and the devil will have a snowball fight.

There’s trillionaires marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah!

There’s trillionaires marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah!

There’s trillionaires marching one by one,

With Trump and Ivanka and each wealthy son,

And they all go marching:

Down, underground, to get out of the flames.

Boom, boom, boom …

In the end, they will be killed and eaten by the starving masses…metaphorically.

The historical “Let them eat cake” mantra of the rich is still prevalent. I can’t imagine Congress creating a tax reform bill that would actually hurt themselves.

Congress should be required to live on minimum wage for a month before they take office. And no fair using anything they had beforehand, like gold toilets and $1,400 suits!

Keep the dreamers, deport Trump’s Nazi friends.

Given that the Dreamers are hardworking, capable individuals, whereas the people up there with Trump are entitled trust-fund babies who have never worked a day in their lives, I know who I would keep in.

Inherited wealth and postition in the 1% FAR OUTNUMBER the “self made” folks. Like, well, Trump. If not for his dad setting him up Donnie would be working at Burger King, and wouldn’t be the one owning the franchise.
