A smarter tax code needed to pay down the $36.7 trillion national debt.

 

GREED…AND THE LACK THEREOF

greed \\ n (1609) : a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (as money) than is needed

LACK OF GREED  (15 reasons why greed is overrated)

  • Chuck Yeager
  • Neil Armstrong…and the other Apollo astronauts who walked on the moon
  • John Wooden 
  • Pete Maravich

Pete Maravich didn’t get paid much to set all those college basketball records still held today, though he did get paid to play basketball after his college years.  Chuck Yeager, the Apollo astronauts who walked on the moon, and John Wooden never demanded an excess amount from their employers for what they did best, but they did get paid for doing what they did best.  Chuck Yeager got paid by the military to be a test pilot.  The Apollo astronauts got paid by NASA to go to the moon and back.  And John Wooden was paid by UCLA to coach basketball.
