aw fuck, I can't get this video to embed...maybe one of the web-savvy folks here can figure is out. There's been lots of debate on whether this is funny or cruel. I know I laughed out loud and so did my 9 year old daughter. I also know that I'd probably piss myself if I were the one being pranked.

[derek]

Cruel? I don't know. funny? Not after the first time. Once was enough.

THE TAX SYSTEM EXPLAINED IN BEER


Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all
ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes,
it would go something like this...

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.

The fifth would pay $1.

The sixth would pay $3.

The seventh would pay $7..

The eighth would pay $12.

The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.


So, that's what they decided to do.

The ten men drank in the bar every day and
seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner
threw them a curve ball. "Since you are all such good customers,"
he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20."
Drinks for the ten men would now cost just $80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the
way we pay our taxes. So the first four men were unaffected. They
would still drink for free. But what about the other six men? The paying customers?
How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get
his fair share?

They realized that $20 divided by six is
$3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the
fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.

So, the bar owner suggested that it would be
fair to reduce each man's bill by a higher percentage the poorer he
was, to follow the principle of the tax system they had been using,
and he proceeded to work out the amounts he suggested that each
should now pay. And so the fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% saving).

The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% saving).

The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% saving).

The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% saving).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% saving).

The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% saving).

Each of the six was better off than before.
And the first four continued to drink for free. But, once outside
the bar, the men began to compare their savings.

"I only got a dollar out of the $20 saving,"
declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, "but he got $10!"

"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth
man. "I only saved a dollar too. It's unfair that he got ten times
more benefit than me!"

"That's true!" shouted the seventh man. "Why
should he get $10 back, when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!"

"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in
unison, "we didn't get anything at all. This new tax system
exploits the poor!" The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn't show up
for drinks, so the nine sat down and had their beers without him.
But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something
important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that, boys and girls, journalists and
government ministers, is how our tax system works. The people who
already pay the highest taxes will naturally get the most benefit from a tax reduction.
Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may
not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas,
where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

And that's funny how?

OK try this one.


How can you tell if someone likes Moosehead?

Tax system = weak sauce. Beer is not equal to social services. The wealthy tend to forget that it takes a society to make them wealthy. Its a system, not a product like beer. The french forgot that once. I forget the details, but I think it worked out well for the wealthy...


Moosehead = LMAO.

The richest of them all has a different take:

...maybe you’ll run into someone with a terrific investment idea, who won’t go forward with it because of the tax he would owe when it succeeds. Send him my way. Let me unburden him.
