The top tax rates go from 35% to 39%...

[SHRED]

...and the billionaires freak out and organize phony "grassroots" outrage.

4% and the FreedomWorks-Dittohead-FAUX sheep run to defend the greed of their corporate/billionaire masters.

1. Not the billionaires

These yahoos, most them anyway, are just taking marching orders from their favorite talk show host. Most of them are in the tax brackets such that they got Obama tax cuts this year.

Obama actually won the over $200,000 demographic last year 52%-46% (though I doubt that includes many billionaires). Most of these folks (over $250K) were told in the campaign that their taxes would be raised. They voted for Obama anyway.

4. Cultural hegemony

Cultural hegemony is the philosophic and sociological concept, originated by the Marxist philosopher Antonio Gramsci, denoting that a culturally-diverse society can be ruled (dominated), by one of its social classes. It is the dominance of one social group over another, i.e. the ruling class over all other classes. The ideas of the ruling class come to be seen as the norm, the universal ideologies that benifit everyone whilst only really benefiting the capitalist class.

5. Until there is street violence

At which moment, the government will send the young men en masse' to make-work projects in the mountains.

6. And that doesn't go into effect until 2012

It is all fake outrage. They have nothing else and are ticked at being siderailed. Boss Limbaugh is in heaven. He gives the marching orders and his minions march. They don't understand what they are there for other than they are trying to get attention.
