Band of Billionaires

The amazing offer works like this: You, the working class, get to assume ten-trillion dollars in debt and thus help out struggling Billionaires, and in return the GOP will give you a crisp twenty-dollar bill in every trillion dollar box of Tax Crackerjacks! But wait there's more! You may have trouble paying off your share of that mountain of debt during your working life. No matter how hard you work your fingers to the bone for Billionaires, your retirement cash flow may be adversely affected by Republican legislation destroying social security or allowing corporate crooks to wallow in your retirement assets until they exhaust it and wind up face down in a pile of cocaine and hookers in Vegas. Or in a post Bush-world you may be sent to the protein reclamation center to become Soylent Green too early to fully pay your share. So the Republicans signed your kids up to take over your payments upon your death! Doesn't that just ooze compassion?

Even a hard-boiled cynic like myself feels a lump of conservative pride in my throat when I realize that no longer will the Republicans allow American Billionaires to slip silently through the widening cracks in our social safety net and fall forever into the unforgiving abyss of financial irrelevance below. But my eyes tear up and my voice chokes with patriotic emotion, in a manner normally reserved for only the most solemn mission-accomplished constitution-shredding wire-tapping Orwellian moments, when I realize that our gallant GOP Congress and Republican White House have bravely forged your children's names on the zillion-dollar lien in a most noble, inverse Robinhood-esque way. What amazing charity our little ones demonstrate with their selfless act by GOP proxy! And while these young Americans may not be able to talk, and the vast majority of them remain unborn, I'm confident that if they could speak for themselves they'd eagerly accept a life of corporate bondage and garnished wages, if they knew that by doing so they would leave no Billionaire behind. After all it is written: And a little child shall lead them.

Thank goodness the compassionate conservatives are moving decisively to restore mankind's traditional feudal heritage and imperial family values. And I for one, with the help of my fellow GOP voters, will happily sign away your children's social security, retirement, health insurance, and Medicare if it can help get even one Billionaire back on their financial feet. Wouldn't We the People feel deep satisfaction knowing that without our sweat, each and every giga-trust fund brat might not have enough loot to get that 80 foot yacht they've been dreaming of since age ten? That's the kind of thing that should bring a warm smile of compassion to anyone's face, be they conservative or liberal traitor, as they lay emaciated, quietly dying of starvation and exposure in a snow-covered cardboard box in a lonely alley deep in the heart of Bushville.
