Day: November 27, 2012

Minutes spent per day with a newspaper has fallen from 33 in 2009 to 22 in 2012. For magazines the drop was 22 to 16.

This last election has shown that “taxing the rich” is dominant value of the American Voter, says Tea Party activist Bob Guzzardi.

“Elections have consequences and it is time the losers recognize that and embrace Hollywood Values of redistributing the wealth and where best to start than Hollywood, home of the Obama Redistributionists,” he says. 

Democrat Harry Truman imposed a Hollywood 20% Federal Admissions  Tax on Movie Admission, an excise tax, after WWII, in response to the high deficits after World War II. 

Deficits are high again.

Would Barack Obama’s Million Dollar Donor Morgan Freeman, and Obama Supporters, George Clooney, Beyonce, Oprah,   Samuel l. Jackson, Barbra Streisand and Jane Fonda, not want to lead by example give up lives of obscene luxury, including California’s own $100 million Hollywood Tax Credit, for their principles and for the “Greater Good”? 

How many movies weren’t made because a producer said: “Tax rates are too high?”  Were there fewer movies made when there were no tax credits or when tax rates were high?

Would not professional athletes not want to follow? College athletes, and Olympic stars, play the game for no monetary reward, why would not professional athletes themselves play for the same reasons they played in college?  After all, they didn’t build it, someone else did.

Great points, Bob.
