POSERS: ‘Patriotic Millionaires’ Ask to Be Taxed More. Actually, they’re asking for other people to be taxed more, since they can always make a voluntary contribution to the Treasury. And there’s nothing patriotic about asking others to pay more when you haven’t done so yourself. Hacks.

But if it’s patriotic to ask for others to pay more, then my proposal for a 50% surtax on government officials’ post-government employment is super-duper-patriotic! So where’s my puff piece from the National Journal? Hello? Terris? Anyone?
