An Interview

So let me get this straight.  "You" (Mr. President and other "statist" politicians) are going to create jobs by taking money away from those (i.e., the most recently proposed 5% "surcharge" on millionaires) who create jobs.  Being a taxpayer, you could (or should) consider me an investor.  Before we start handing over my money, I'd like to see some references, some track records.
Lets see.  How many sustainable jobs has government ever created?  What's that?  Mmmm-hmmm.

Okay, lets look at the resume of the "millionaires".  How many jobs have they created?  Oh, my!!!

Obviously the "millionaires" are job-creating jaugernauts, but I still want to give strong central government a chance.  How are you, Mr. President and Harry Reid, at managing money.  What is that, Mr. President?  You have done what to the deficit during your 1st term.  Holy macral!!!

To be fair, lets look at the millionaires.  How are they at handling money?  Oooooooooo.  That's quite impressive. A lot of you started at the bottom with nothing and made it into something.  Wow, you just keep getting richer?  What is that?  Oh, you don't just bury your profits in the back yard?  You expand your business so that you can make more profit (you greedy bastards!!!) and these business expansions create more jobs?!!!

I'm sorry Mr. President and Nancy Pelosi, I was so offended by the greed of these millionaires, I forgot you were there.

Okay, the last thing we want to know about someone (or something) before we invest in this: how honest are you?  Here is a good interview question: "So the money you take from me each month for Social Security is invested responsibly and earmarked for our retirements, right?" What's that, you just put it in the general pool and spend it?  Really?!!!  So each year, you have to get more money from new tax payers so that you can pay off those who paid-in years ago?  Mmmmmmhmmmmmmm.  Let me absorb that for a moment.

Millionaires, I haven't forgotten about you.  What would happen if you managed your "investments" in the same way the government manages Social Security?  What is that?!!!  Surely you are joking, or at least exagerating!!  No?!!  You really would go to prison?  Uh-huh.  Its called a Ponzie Scheme?  Wow!

I don't know about the rest of you taxpayers on the panel here, but I think I've heard all I need to hear.  I know who the obvious choice is for investing (i.e., spending my money at businesses).  I hope you do too.
