Last time I bought a CD (which was a couple years ago, because I don’t like paying money to liberals), the CD was almost $20.

$20. For a tiny slab of plastic. And movie ticket prices - don’t even get me started.

I think it’s high time to start charging hollywood studios, a “windfall profits” tax.

“Big cd”, and “Big movie” can pony up some of their bucks. And “Big lawyers” too. They’re pretty greedy.

How about a cap on liability lawyers fees.

And how about “Big tv”. Bunch of whining greedballs.

If it’s just greed we’re taxing, seems to this poster liberals are (over-) represented in that group.

This could be fun... :)

You seem predisposed to jumping right next to Hillary and engaging in punitive taxation of other people. That's the wrong approach. Remove the taxes and restrictive regulations. Turn the business community loose to do their best without the impediment to onerous government involvement.

Movie theatre popcorn has been a huge rippoff for years, imagine now that the Ethenol industry is taking over the nation!!!

$10 gas??? $10 popcorn will ruin the movie industry!!!!

My big bugaboo is the cost of a University Ed-You-Kayshun. I want to see a plot of the growth of tuition against gasoline from 1965 to today. Somebody reading this has the ability and nothing better to do than put it together.
