Where do people come up with this stuff?  Where does this guy think the
money would come from for "the government" to pay it?  Are they just going
to print it?  Are they just going to get it from a different industry than

CB: Maybe if taxes on the highest income brackets were raised to 1950
levels, and so forth, taking away all other tax breaks to the rich of recent
vintage, might have enough to pay.

Tax the rich !
