Yep ... socialism. That's the way the democrats want it ... Obama said it to the plumber today. Read the link. Wait, I'll do it for the naysayers.
"It's not that I want to punish your success. I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they've got a chance for success too," Obama responded. "My attitude is that if the economy's good for folks from the bottom up, it's gonna be good for everybody ... I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody."
Well. That sounds fair .... uh, doesn't it. Dolfan13 ....send me $20, for nothing, OK. How do you feel about that?
Here's the rub. 45% don't pay taxes yet the next stimulus plan that Pelosi's pushing is going to give them yet another handout. That's pretty much taking from the taxpayer and giving it to non-taxpayers .. those who never paid into the system and probably never will. Yep. That's socialism. Wake up.
BTW ... my prior rebate check, which shouldn't have been done to begin with, was less than $100. I didn't make the $1200 handout but I damn sure paid into the system. Mmmm ... that's real fair. Let's see .. I work hard, pay my taxes and the government wants to give that money to somebody getting a monthly government check and who in many cases CHOOSES not to work. Excuse me?
The banks are going belly up from all the bad loans they were coerced to give to people who shouldn't have gotten the loans to begin with ... thanks to the House services financial committee chairman pushing the liberal agenda. The banks fail and the country fails .. not much of a choice from what I hear. Thank the taxpayer again for making that bailout happen ... not the 45%, of which 90%+ I'm sure, vote Democratic.
Make sure you vote Democrat so we can up that to 51% in which case we'll all be arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
