Three cheers for Tom Perkins!

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Tom Perkins attracted more than a little ridicule a couple weeks ago with his assertion that the super-rich like him are being persecuted in contemporary America just like Jews were persecuted in Nazi Germany.

Hold on a minute. Maybe Tom is the canary in the proverbial coalmine. Maybe some of us are just too blind with envy to see what is really happening.

Already we see the super-rich being barred from the boards of directors of major corporations. None of the big banks will any longer be publicly associated with billionaires. They are increasingly shunned even by the very media they own!

Rumours abound of private jets ferrying planeloads of billionaires to secret camps deep in the woods. We are told these camps are for “economic summits.” Of course they are… just like the Jews of Europe were attending “economic summits” at Belsen and Auschwitz.

And what of the future for our beleaguered billionaires? Will enough survive these dark days to achieve, someday, a homeland of their own?  

Luckily, Tom has an idea that may nip this tide of anti-oligarchism in the bud. The fatal flaw in democracy has always been that a lot of lazy stupid people have this so-called “right to vote.” This manifestly unfair feature of US democracy has lead us straight to the current crisis of billionaire-bashing. If Tom’s net worth is the equivalent of the combined net worth of 150 million poor Americans, why should they get 150 million votes while he gets one?

Tom’s plan is brilliant in its simplicity. Every dollar paid in tax would entitle the payer to one vote. That way Tom will no longer be punished for working a million times harder than a million lazy stupid poor people. This plan would also increase government revenue by incentivising many billionaires to pay taxes for the first time!

So enough with the ridicule already. Let’s give Tom’s plans a chance!
