That's a better definition than the asinine definition that appears to have somehow become the norm, where only people earning a million or more a year are millionaires. If you have more than a million dollars, you're a millionaire, no matter how long it took to collect that money.

And being a millionaire is better than not being a millionaire. And the fact that being a millionaire is better than not being a millionaire is better than the shouldn't-become-a-fact that being a millionaire is frowned upon.

I don't know...could you please enlighten me?

Millionaires are the class enemy, Vosem.  They kill the rest, so the rest should return the favor.

Calling millionaires a coherent 'class' is a stretch, but I suppose you could say that. But millionaires certainly don't kill 'the rest'; slightly more than 80% of US millionaires are self-made, which means they've survived being part of 'the rest' to become millionaires themselves.

They certainly don't kill people -- in the US, the likeliest murderer is someone with a low income killing someone of similar social status.

First they came after the millionaires, and then the millionaires divided by four, and then by ten, and then they came after you.

oh man your sense of humor is cruel.

Comparing progressive taxation to the holocaust. Nice Torie.
The Republican cult of victimization has no shame. Surely, this is not news to you.

'The Holocaust was worse' is not a good way to defend anything. Even though that's true.
