[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL!  Get these "Constitutional Conservatives" and libertarians away from their conservative blogs and their talk radio and their cozy little Glenn Beck bubble of delusion and out into the real world, and they get an instant smackdown.

Sorry, folks, but Glenn Beck and others of his ilk COUNT on you dupes to be uninformed and gullible.   And it works every time.[/quote]

So you can't really refute the facts. Got it. Otherwise you'd answer the question about how The Bern plans on getting Hollywood to pay up.[/quote]

Plenty of ways you could do that, starting with severely restricting and penalizing offshoring of money and offering a grace period with an opportunity to repatriate offshore money - then you eliminate the gazillion loopholes that have been created in the tax code for the rich, et cetera.  It's not like they are going to pack up and leave - Hollywood is here, and the market is here. Leaving would be cutting your nose off to spite your face.  There's plenty of millions still to be made, no need to be greedy.  And frankly 99% of America doesn't give a shit and has zero sympathy if you think you have a hardship case because you only ended up with $60 million instead of $80 million.

But that said, frankly I'm a lot more concerned with hedge fund traders than I am with Hollywood - at least the guys in Hollywood CREATE something useful and interesting for the world, as opposed to just getting rich via smoke and mirrors, market manipulation and insanity like putting institutional retirement funds at risk.  Again, we still need to go after the Wall Street assholes that crashed the economy in 2008.  They are still responsible for 13 trillion in personal wealth that went up in smoke due to their deranged gambling with banks and mortgages.  It's not too much to expect them to make good on restoring some of that.[/quote]
