Madison, Wisconsin - Speaking before a rally sponsored by College Neo-Whigs for Notgerman, Chest Notgerman, Neo-Whig candidate for president, electrified the crowd by revealing his plan to tax heavily those who below the poverty line.

"People need an incentive to succeed," said Notgerman. "And we're going to give them one. When I am elected I will propose to Congress the Poor Person's Tax Surcharge Act that will impose a 90% tax on all incomes falling below the so-called 'poverty line.' That ought to get their attention. Those minimum wage jobs at McDonald's will start to look pretty good."

Notgerman told the crowd that his economic plan envisions 12% annual growth in GDP and 110% employment. "It's simple. The more you make, the less you pay. Now get out there and do your patriotic duty by earning loads of money."
