Obama Fires A 'Robin Hood' Warning Shot

by Charles Hurt - October 15th, 2008 - New York Post

"I've worked hard . . . I work 10 to 12 hours a day and I'm buying this company and I'm going to continue working that way. I'm getting taxed more and more while fulfilling the American Dream."

"It's not that I want to punish your success," Obama told him. "I want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they've got a chance for success, too.

Then, Obama explained his trickle-up theory of economics.

"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."

Trickle up! That is the new explanation for the failed theory of socialism / marxism. Trickle up.

At least we no longer have to wonder whether Obama was allied with Bill Ayers or not. Despite his protesting that comparing him to Ayers is unfair, he now admits that he shares the Ayers belief America is unfair and Obama wants to tax the middle class to spread the wealth. It is not how hard you work that should determine how much you are paid. It is whether you exist and are breathing.

Obama believes that giving you a free ride increases the chances that you will work hard. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? Reward everyone for not working hard and they will start to believe in working hard? Do you believe that?
