Today, sugardaddies are on everybody’s mind…
Boy, if Mitt Rmoney wins the election, I wonder if he’ll even have time to do any proper presidentin’, what with all the billionaire dick he’ll be sucking.
The following are a few blurbs from the article, which, by the way, please to be reading…
THE VULTURE CAPITALIST: Paul Singer
How He Lives Owns two $9 million ski chalets in Aspen and a luxury apartment on Central Park. Has been feted by Fortuneas “a passionate defender of the one percent.”
THE TAX DODGER: Julian Robertson Jr.What He Wants Unfairly low taxes. Robertson has embraced tax avoidance as a lifestyle: In 2000, despite living and working in Manhattan, he logged 182 days outside the city – often racing to flee town by midnight – to avoid paying local income tax. Also admits to seeking direct access to the president: “I would expect Mitt Romney to speak to me occasionally,” he has said.
THE BAIN BUDDY: Edward ConardHow He LivesOwns a $7 million triplex on the Upper East Side of New York. A Harvard MBA, Conard believes the economy is governed by “Darwinian survival of the fittest.”
I read things like this and I lose hope. Between this and the craven attempts to purge “the wrong people” from the voter rolls, I really do wonder if we’re living in any sort of democracy anymore.
I think the only thing that can soothe me is this picture:
We have the illusion of democracy, and it’s brought to us at substantial (mcgravitas) expense.
Birthday Boy is adorable, on the other hand.
😉
That look on his face is precious. He knows he’s the cuteation, and he’s not afraid to flaunt it.
It was one of those chance snapshots, I don’t think he was basking in anything in particular. But it’s hard to take a bad picture of a face THAT CUTE.
Keep reminding yourselves whence political power originates.
Hint: Gun, barrel of.
