The Futurama episode this week was so spot on that it kind of hurt.

JPMorgan gave a massive gift of $4.6 million to the New York City Police Foundation in the form of money, patrol car laptops, “security monitoring software,” and other tech resources. But the donation was given starting late last year and was completed by spring 2011, so it was obviously not made in response to the Occupy Wall Street protests. At the time, Commissioner Ray Kelly sent JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon a note expressing his “profound gratitude” for the donation, and a company-written news item about the gift described it as “unprecedented” in size. —

Justin Elliot, “The NYPD, now sponsored by Wall Street”

A consequence of cutting funds to services like the police is that private entities move in to fill the vacuum left by public funds. Now which would you rather have paying the salaries of the NYPD: taxpayers or JPMorgan?

^^An excellent question to all free-market capitalists.

agentmlovestacos: Seriously. I’m okay with paying taxes. But the dude who owns my house and makes more than me? He should pay more taxes. And the guy who sent out that sad letter about messing up Netflix? That dude should pay, like, way more taxes than either of us. via timetruthhumor: “It is wrong that in the United States of America a teacher or a nurse or a construction worker who earns $50,000 should pay higher tax rates than somebody pulling in $50 million.Anybody who says we can’t change the tax code to correct that, anyone who has signed some pledge to protect every single tax loophole so long as they live, they should be called out.”   —-President Obama (9/19/11)
