It’s nice to have a day honoring labor, but in contemporary America it seems more appropriate to have a Hedge Fund Operators Day or a Capital Gains Tax Holiday. For three hundred and sixty-four days a year we don’t honor labor in this country. We honor bling. We honor Donald Trump. If we honored labor, we’d tax wages at a lower rate than capital gains. We do the opposite. And it’s supposed to create jobs but it never seems to deliver. Our priorities are screwed up because our overlords are polluting our minds every day. That’s what I think about on Labor Day. This year, more than ever. Viva la Wisconsin.
