Well, I played with the NYTimes Budget Puzzle from last year, and I was wrong!
You CAN just about balance the budget on the backs of the wealthy!
FUCK YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!
(Of course, I’d still raise taxes on almost everyone to give me some room to construct a single payer system and engineer other socialist goodies.)

“She did the Secretary of State job, she was a G, she held it down, she didn’t...”
– Ice-T, on why Hillary Clinton will be the first female president
The best part about this story is that the Huffington Post (via the AP) decided to explain to us what a “G” is. In case you didn’t know — it’s “the hip-hop term for gangster (a positive thing)”.

“Parenting is just one part of a French mother’s life, alongside stilettos and a...”
– Ever since “French Women Don’t Get Fat” became a bestseller in America a few years ago, a new genre has emerged devoted to the failings that French women don’t possess. Now a new book turns attention to the impossibly well-mannered offspring of these impossibly chic women. (via theeconomist)

Unfortunately I’ll have to decline. Whipping my dick out where I am now will lead to an arrest.

I’m sorry, but you can’t balance the budget on the rich alone - I wish we could, but it just wouldn’t happen.
We should wait until unemployment nears 5%, but it has to happen sooner or later.
