New Priorities

My lovely and very intelligent bride came up with an idea, and in looking further, I see it's not a new idea in Europe (where all great ideas come from)

What a great concept. I think it could be taken a lot further though. We could convert all golf courses to urban farms, and the priviledged could spend the time they used to spend selfishly golfing to instead grow crops for the less fortunate. Obama could have single-handedly fed an entire community by now.

NSA can provide all the data, showing who golfs and how much time they've spent doing so in the last, say 5 years. Average the hours and require them to work growing food. Tax their income at 100% if they don't put in their hours for the year.

It's a non-partisan approach, as all flavors of rich slimeballs play golf.
