Truly shocking, Mitt Romney has moved on from chastising America for copying him to more important things, like the fact that education is expensive for a reason: so that only people who can afford it are permitted to get it.
Ah, so. Working all this shit out must be another of those rich people problems I wish I had.<br /><br />Let me guess, Trusts are people too, my friend?
I&#039;m pretty sure the windows on his Rolls will be nice and thick, so he won&#039;t hear anything he doesn&#039;t want to hear. Straight from one quiet room to another.
Hey now, your parents didn&#039;t become multimillionaries by just <em>giving</em> money away, even to family. That&#039;s gotta be paid back, y&#039;know, with interest, sonny jim.
Although, it <em>would</em> be interesting to see how Scalia and Roberts twist themselves in knots to justify the constitutionality of <em>that</em> as Federal policy when a Republican is in the White House.
Wow, it&#039;s only barely possible to extract the intended meaning from that word soup, and <em>sheesh</em> does it taste bad...
Mr. Romney, it&#039;s a fairly fucking obvious principle that the economy does best by maximizing the potential of every worker. That means that allocating education by criteria other than potential results on suboptimal economic performance. The ability of prospective students to afford postsecondary education is primarily a function not of their potential but of parental wealth, which has little to do with the child&#039;s innate potential. Ergo, your proposal is harmful to this country.
<em>Please</em> fuck off. For America.
It should still be factored in, however - it&#039;s just pre-bequeathed personal wealth.
Actually what is the technical ownership status of a GRAT? The kids can&#039;t technically own it all already either, otherwise the transfer would&#039;ve invoked the gift tax. Wiki says if the grantor dies before the period expires, the trust becomes part of the Grantor&#039;s estate, which to me strongly suggests he still owns it.

As long as they&#039;re impaled on bloody arrows, I&#039;m pretty sure that bare breasts are not considered obscene.
Mmmm ... steaks we like!

Stuy, or Science?
In any sense of &quot;getting it&quot;.
is it possible this tone deaf privileged nerd with the personality of stale weetabix could actually become our president?
