>...except the 10th guy is the CEO for the corp that actually own's the bar...so he ends up paying nothing but himself. One thru six work as dishwashers at the bar, seven is the 80hr week assistant manager with no benefits, eight is the 70hr week manager with a 401k (that # one is stealing from), and number nine is the no-show mafia guy dealing with the state liquor licenses and such.

>Spoken like a true socialist with an obvious sense of entitlement. If you want to pay more taxes, there is nothing that pevents you from writing a check to the IRS.

Spoken like a true wannabe capitalist, who paints red anyone who utters any disagreement with the idea that this is the best of all worlds.

That's not helping the discussion, but then the construction of the example in the initial post was of that wannabe kind, so maybe you are on the line. I just couldn't but see the irony - this kind of labeling any dissenters was a true and tried communist technique, because it didn't require any proof whatsoever. Just label the dissenter, and you're done. The masses will know what's expected of them - to shun the guy, ostracize etc.

Except the technique is too old. Too many people recognize it as such nowadays. It lost a lot of teeth.
