(2003-01-02) — Sen. John Edwards, D-NC, kicked off his 2004 presidential campaign this morning by unveiling his proposed tax plan.
“America should make its money the way I made my millions-by suing insurance companies,” said Sen. Edwards. “I figure if we sue all the insurance companies in a class action on behalf of every American who’s ever been injured, it will raise billions of dollars. A small percentage of that can go to the actual victims, with the rest going to Uncle Sam. “
Sen. Edwards even has a slogan for his novel plan: “The Federal government won’t get paid unless we collect damages for you.”
