Heard the first part of this analogy from Rush Limbaugh the other day. Thought it could be taken further...
The Bernie Sanders 90% tax plan: A Golf Analogy
You walk into a pro shop to buy a ball marker. "How much?" you ask.
"That'll be one dollar," says the golf pro.
You hand over a crisp new dollar.
"Here's your ball marker," he says, as he hands you a dime.
"Hang on!" you protest, "What happens to the other 90 cents?"
"Well," says the golf pro, "some of it goes to pay the staff and management here at the Club. The rest will be used for gift vouchers that will be available exclusively to non-members and those who are delinquent in their club dues."
"That's not fair!" you protest. "Forget the whole thing! Give me back my dollar!"
"SECURITY!!!!" yells the golf pro.
