I don’t spend too much time thinking about taxes, but ran into this slide deck which uses a “3 guys go to a bar” approach which includes a little revolution and potential expats along with the cartoon characters. I take a little issue with the zero contribution and zero benefit approach, since math bears out that worker guy over time received $1000’s in benefit in the model laid out. I guess that might be the point – no tax cuts or we have to pay for our own beer. I’m actually a little confused by the message, it’s almost inverse Marxism with the focus on the benefit and status quo, rather than the contribution and improvement.

So my kids have recently become inundated with Michael Jackson songs, my iTunes spend this month is a little higher than normal, but I do think I own every Top 20 song by MJ. Last night I found myself singing along with Pretty Young Thing and just laughing at Prescott dancing his ass off in the family room. I guess that’s what it’s about – sharing fun and good times. Good music can do that and that’s what we got from MJ during his life.
I don’t have any “I remember when my parents bought me Off the Wall” or the first time I saw the Thriller video. After a Panic show like when I was 34, the house music after encore was Can’t Stop Till You Get Enough, 20,000 sweaty folks after 3 hours of music basically refused to leave when the lights came on, until the song finished.
