He makes in the mid six figures, has lots of toys (cars, an rv, a boat), and I don't think he has any idea what an effective tax rate like the Nordic socialist paradises he's constantly touting (80+%) would do to his lifestyle. I like pissing him off by destroying his arguments with statistics provided by his beloved government.
Funny how someone that smart who can make that kind of $$$ can also be so damn ignorant. Well...heaven forbid we end up with some wackjob like Bernie in office and he watches his salary get pillaged by a system he initially supported. Then you and I can crack open a beer, smile and say, "I told you so."
