… maybe more businesses should offer health insurance. Just sayin. 

So much wrong here. What kind of grocery store pays their employees $50k, and why aren’t any of this owner’s ten employees outlined? They don’t have healthcare and actually make $15k (minimum wage $7.25, effective next Friday), not $50k. (By the way, did you know that back in the mid-90’s, when minimum wage was around $5, a livable wage was considered $10/hr or $20k/yr?)

I’m gonna say that a single employee making $80k/yr with no health insurance is A: a dope who’s gonna get healthcare, and B: either overworked, overpaid, or both.

And the Wall Streeter? I really can’t even put into words how little I care about your well-being, after you’ve so clearly demonstrated the same by perpetually flushing our economy with your short-sighted, profit-over-all-else motives to invest in anything so long as it makes someone a little money.

I’ve never lived in New York, but somehow I doubt that any of these “examples” are remotely close to the norm. Perhaps the norm for the sub-5% target of these ads to outline the evil taxes, though. I’ll be in the back yard, crying my eyes out for those poor, poor $1.5-million-combined-income couples.

Edit: What could possibly make this even better? It’s authored by Gary Milkwick, owner of Milkwick & Associates, a tax accounting firm, and according to the ad: “of the Tax Club.” The Tax Club is another tax accounting firm that you can “join” as a “member” and get the tax secrets of the wealthy! And they must be legit and smart and good because their office is in the Empire State Building! Give me a friggin’ break.
