Simon Baker gets it-NY Governor not so much
Edited on Tue Oct-18-11 07:14 PM by Liberalynn
Simon Baker of the "Mentalist" gets it. He is in the new movie "Margin Call" and he was interviewed by a Rochester, NY television station this morning.

The reporter asked him what he thought about Occupy Wall Street and he said he thinks its absolutely wonderful. He said the "people deserve their chance to be heard."

In a related story Governor Cumo said he is against a Millionaire Tax for NY because then the "rich" will just move to to NJ or Conneticut.

Good! Let them make excuses about why they aren't creating jobs or paying the taxes they do owe somewhere else! In fact why don't they move to China where their factories are if the middle class and the poor are so unappreciative of them in the U.S? :sarcasm:

Ironic that the actor gets it and the politician is clueless.

What a dissappointment for a Democrat, Andrew is. And I loved his father as Governor so much. One of the reasons I became a Dem.

1. How does he know they aren't already there?
They don't have their tax system based on where it is earned?

2. I don't know how he knows
either or what his thinking is.

He just stated that's his reason for wanting the millionaire tax repealed in NY State.
