Rich Might Leave Town, or Country--Locals Rejoice: Tales From Normal, Mn.: FICTION
Just got the text from Normal, Mn---seems that the guys were all having coffee this morning at Betty Lou's Coffee Shop, and because it was kinda drizzling out decided to spend the morning talking politics...and FOX News was on the overhead TV, and it seems that one of the guys who was listening told the crowd that the "Rich might leave the country if they have to be taxed like everybody else"----the guys just sat there thinking...and then one of the guys just raised a cup of java in a toast----"Best wishes to all the rich in their new country"----the whole table cheered....and one by one they left the coffee shop...and whenever they spotted a rich taxpayer, driving a new luxury car...they just waved and offered to buy the car for .10 on the dollar, just to make the leaving easier...just a kind offering...and then the news spread, and all across the country..by twitter....that the rich were leaving...and then it snowed...and there was peace at Christmas.
