Unless you see it on Twitter, and probably not even there, I’ve got little to nothing today. That, and the fact that it’s Thursday, means it’s Open Thread Thursday. Maestro, music…

Don’t be as shy as me. Pipe up!
I woke up to the news that Obama was all for adding an additional 5% to the taxes of the “super rich”. Apparently if you make over one millions dollars in a single year you are super rich. It’s already 35% so that would make it a nice round 40%. When you’ve added social security and state and local taxes it’s more like 50%. The funny thing about this tax on the “super-rich” is that there are bound to be people all over the country that just happened to have a really good-year in spite of the really bad economy. Well, even though they had such a good year I guess they still won’t be hiring that additional employee, instead that 50k will go straight to uncle sam.
