There Is No Way Any Satirist Can Improve Upon Real Life For Its Pure Absurdity

Shot: Bloomberg: Darned right we need to tax the poor.

—Jazz Shaw, Hot Air, Friday.

Chaser: “The press went with it without explaining that it was an April Fool’s joke. Patsy Schroeder referenced it on the floor of the House of Representatives, a bunch of other Democrat and liberals. By the way, the condition of the poor has vastly improved since the tax the poor update. That was April 1st, 1991, by the way.”

—“20th Anniversary Flashback: Rush Demands We Tax the Poor,” Rush Limbaugh.com, July 31, 2008.

Michael Bloomberg defends and admires Winnie the Pooh. China is a great place, clean air, not a dictatorship, proper communism… unlike Russia.

This video is remarkable, asked about US a greenhouse gas emissions compared to China, Michael Bloomberg goes into a full throated defence of the regime in Beijing on the environment, on their lack of democracy. I can’t believe how bad this is.
