If you ever wonder what “the elite” need with that extra money they’d pockt if such tax plans went through:

Demos.org: Election Spending 2012

A new analysis of data through Election Day from the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and other sources by U.S. PIRG and Demos shows how big outside spenders drowned out small contributions in 2012: just 61 large donors to Super PACs giving an average of $4.7 million each matched the $285.2 million in grassroots contributions from more than 1,425,500 small donors to the major party presidential candidates.

It’s a fucking oligarchy. Fine legacy that the Roberts court has left us.
