Gotta love the way #1 on the list, Robert Mercer, is giving 97 percent of his money to the Cruzer, but hedging his bets by pitching a few dubloons apiece to Jindal and Carly. He didn't get that rich because he's dumb!
He got that rich because the tax on his income is only 15 percent.
Gotta love the fact that "in bed with Wall Street, big money" Clinton doesn't even rate until a measly 32nd. Katzenberg and Soros are absolute pikers compared to the GOP sugar daddies, yet the idjit wingnuts can't shut up about the Dems being bought and sold. Not that it's good to have million dollar benefactors (go Bernie!), but the way those morons carry on you'd think the situation was the opposite of what it actually is.

15%? Wow. Nice work if you can get it!
The "carried interest" loophole allows hedge fund manager profits to be taxed at 15 percent.
A dude working for minimum wage is also paying 15 percent (both sides of FICA and Medicare). Seems fair, right?
Nothing about any of these labyrinthine tax systems makes any sense, but that's probably on purpose….
