Do you consider yourself more left or right wing?

The other version is they order a plate of cookies for $20.  The manager pays $19.50, the worker pays 0.50 and complains the manager isn't paying a fair share.  

*top 10% already pay 72% of taxes

You are completely missing the point of the story its not about taxation or tax rates.  It shows how the rich and powerful are great at dividing and conquering people with less power and less money to keep the status quo.  The manager gets away with 19 cookies and has the worker and immigrant fighting over one cookie.  As long as you have infighting between the middle class, working class and poor people the rich will keep on getting richer and getting away with rigging the system to make them even richer.

Oh I get the "point".  In typical leftist fashion everybody assumes the cookies were free and magically showed up, thus everything should be divided equally.  

I was making fun of the "point" because it is stupid and doesn't represent the real world.

Somebody made the cookies and somebody has to pay for the cookies.  If we lived in Lala land the comic would have value.
