Proof the 1% did not need the big tax cut. The amount of wealth they have was already excessive.

1. It's a beautiful painting. If I were a bazillionaire, I'd

Love to own it. But rather than subsidize if for private ownership I’d rather donate to a museum.

2. I would too, spooky...

On both counts. It’s too beautiful to squirrel away in a private collection. I love Edward Hopper’s work...always have.

3. Agreed

And I obviously admire Hopper. But my point is that these people have close to $100 million lying around for such purchases.

There is do set value for these paintings, only the amount the super rich are willing to pay.

4. I love this painting.

I have a print in my house, along with "Automat."

Edward Hopper is one of my favorite artists.
