The solution to taxation

I need to give credit where credit is due. This idea is partially due to a conversation I had today with my buddy, Crapinator. Props to you Crapinator may you get corporate sponsorship soon...

Sports leagues had this one figured out a long time ago, now Uncle Sam just needs to follow suit. I'm talking about corporate sponsorship of America. Instead of the U.S. Marine Corps, it will now be The Wells Fargo U.S. Marine Corps, instead of The White House, it will now be the Tide Detergent White House, instead of The Lincoln Memorial, it will now be known as the FedEx Lincoln Memorial, and instead of The Capital Building it will now be known as Smucker's Jelly Capital Building and Hill.

The American Flag wouldn't be exempt from this either. Budweiser could sponsor the flag and emboss their logo somewhere amongst the 13 strips. Instead of stars in the blue field, the flag could have different corporate logos in their place - not much different from NASCAR, if you ask me and what's more American than NASCAR? That's right, baseball. Baseball's got it down too. In baseball you see corporate sponsorship everywhere, Coors Field, Minute Maid Park, PETCO Park, AT&T Park, Tropicana Field, U.S. Cellular Field, Comerica Park, Safeco Field, and Ameriquest Field. The transition to National Parks would be simple. Instead of Yosemite National Park it would now be AT&T National Park, instead of Yellowstone National Park it will now be Coors National Park, instead of Zion's National Park, it will now be Zion's Bank National Park.

I tell you this idea might sound loco, but it's not too far off. We've got to figure out a way to pay off this big ol' national debt that's accumulating. If the NFL can sign a deal with UPS so that UPS can call itself the official delivery company of the National Football League, then Schwanns can sign a deal with the United States Postal Service to become the official food delivery company of the United States Postal Service. Schwanns delivery guys could deliver mail at the same time they're delivering food. Just think of how much money that would save.

By the way, support the sponsors that you see advertising on this blog. Feeble Attempts at Humor, the official blog of The United States Supreme Court. This Bud's for you Anton Scalia!
