Mark Cuban. PAY YOUR TAXES. BE PATRIOTIC...
..snip

So be Patriotic. Go out there and get rich. Get so obnoxiously rich that when that tax bill comes , your first thought will be to choke on how big a check you have to write. Your 2nd thought will be “what a great problem to have”, and your 3rd should be a recognition that in paying your taxes you are helping to support millions of Americans that are not as fortunate as you.

In these times of “The Great Recession” we shouldn’t be trying to shift the benefits of wealth behind some curtain. We should be celebrating and encouraging people to make as much money as they can. Profits equal tax money. While some people might find it distasteful to pay taxes. I don’t. I find it Patriotic.

Hmmm. Wonder what the former owner of the Texas Rangers would think about a Dallas sports team saying something like this.

:shrug:

3. Hey. This thread made the Greatest Page from GD.
You gotta admit that Cuban has a good point, regardless of who a former owner of the Dallas baseball franchise was!

(This is really hard to do, El!)
