YANKEES ASK CONGRESS TO TAX A-ROD’S BONUS
by R J Shulman
NEW YORK (PTSD News) – Taking a cue from the recent tax imposed by Congress on AIG executive bonuses, the New York Yankees are asking Washington to impose a 90% tax on the bonus the Yankees paid Alex Rodriguez. “It’s not fair to America’s pastime to reward such a large bonus when his numbers just haven’t come up to expectations,” said Yankee general manager Brian Cashman.

New York Senator Chuck Schumer, an early supporter of the A-Rod tax told Congress that “it must come to the aid of the New York Yankees because they are too big to fail.” “I was shocked to learn how big his bonus was,” said President Obama,” especially when there are so many deserving underpaid minor leaguers.”

“All this talk about A-Rod’s bonus is just a distraction from the real issue,” said Senator Barbara Boxer, “which is that AIG has just spent $1.1 billon of their bailout money to have the Yankees’ new ballpark called AIG Stadium.”

The Alex Rodriguez bonus tax will be debated by the Senate on Monday and is expected to pass despite the growing oppositions by crowd’s gathering in Washington waving signs that say, “Yankees Go Home.”
