Oprah is officially the shit.

Akira=stupid Souljacker=wise

Care to elucidate chief?

If GM or Oprah or fucking George W. Bush himself gave you a car, tax-free, none of you asses would be complaining. Just be happy for a good thing.

Car recipients may owe up to $7000 in taxes.

D'OH!!

They can sell their brand new cars for much more than that. G6's go for around $20,000 new, so I'm sure they'll be just fine.

DOES ANYONE ELSE WANT TO SHIT ON SOMEONE WHO GOES AND DOES A NICE THING PUBLICLY??? Fuck me, and I thought I was a cynic...reading through this thread has depressed the shit out of me.

Edit: Oh, I'm sorry, it's $28,500. God, it must suck to be them, stuck with a $7000 tax! That Oprah sure is a self-serving bitch for arranging for her audience to get cars and giving them absolutely no possible way to pay for their tax! They must hate her now because it would really suck to get minimally (if you were a totally unskilled salesperson) $13,000 profit for doing nothing!

Christ, can't people do anything nice these days without it being some ulterior motive? I mean, I'm not like a huge Ayn Rand fan, but people, all actions come down to selfishness, always. If you volunteer at a homeless shelter, you probably do it because it makes you feel good be helping someone. Maybe you're doing it because you're working off community service for a DUI or something. It doesn't fucking matter; people's lives are bettered because of it, and most of us just sit on our asses and do nothing to help people anyway. So don't go shitting on someone's motives, just celebrate the act because it's cool when people help people and move the fuck on with your life.

Speaking of which, I'm about to move the fuck on with my life.
