A Letter to the Wealthiest Americans

Dear Super Rich,

Whew! You can officially relax. Rumors of wealth re-distribution have been greatly exaggerated.

According to a new study released by the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, the top 1% of American income earners accounted for 8% of our total national income in 1979, and thirty years later, you account for 17% of our total wages. Congratulations, you've more than doubled your share of our nation's wealth. 

Oh, and don't worry about the next four years. We're working on some proposals that will make sure your future income tax rate is officially lowered. I know you're already able to work the system and you hardly pay taxes any way, but with our new "flat tax" plans, you won't have to waste your precious time and money hiring accountants to cheat the system for you. 

Now then, lay your weary heads down on your golden pillows and get some rest. You've earned it.

Sincerely,
Middle Class Republicans
