"You need to tax the turnover rates of the Koch Brother's hedge funds through a Wall Street Sales Tax of 1%. You also need higher estate taxes on millionaires who participate in off shore banking."

That's fine, and I'm all for it, but since I have no power to tax anyone, I'm going to have to content myself with not patronizing businesses that push political agendas I don't agree with.
