He's a socialist:

Obama to Plumber: My Plan Will 'Spread the Wealth Around' - FOXNews.com Elections

Quote:

Barack Obama told a tax-burdened plumber over the weekend that his economic philosophy is to "spread the wealth around" -- a comment that may only draw fire from riled-up John McCain supporters who have taken to calling Obama a "socialist" at the Republican's rallies.

Obama made the remark after fielding some tough questions from the plumber Sunday in Ohio, where the Democratic candidate canvassed neighborhoods and encouraged residents to vote early.

"Your new tax plan is going to tax me more, isn't it?" the plumber asked.

"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."

Obama frequently rails against what he calls a Republican concept that tax breaks for the wealthy will somehow "trickle down" to middle-class Americans.

Obama says he will not raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000 a year.

When the FBI and Secret Service are investigating this site because the shooter was wearing a DM shirt, if it does happen, I just want to be on the record as stating...I don't know this man!

Fuck socalism, if you want that move to a country like Holland. Actually you would have a great time. They are currently fucking over their own to help immigrants. An immigrant is given a house while a returning dutch who has been living elsewhere has to go on a multiyear waiting list. And then in the end the Government owns your house, not you.

Also look at the birthrates in these countries, they are very low. Once all the workers retire, there won't be enough younger people to keep the high taxes going to afford the retirees.

Socialism is on it's way out.

The best way is to stop bitching about your life, buy within your limits and work your ass off to succeed, life isn't easy.

yeah 1 billion... lol.

I like china, their whole history and classic approach to life, their honor and all of that... but I could nver find myself living in china or near (150miles) china with how it is now. Same goes for most of the asian community. they are cool people, but... no.

BlackArtemis · 10-13-2008, 08:50 PM

Ummm Chinese people for the most part are horribly rude, classless and disgusting. This has been my experience with them for the past 3 years. There are many Chinese and half chinese in Thailand.

B00STED4V · 10-13-2008, 08:54 PM

all the chinese or asian people i've ever meet have seen very nice and very courteous. but with the population being several bill, im sure there is bound to be asshats in all aspects of life and population.

they do make some good food

There it is.

Don't know why so many people think they deserve a part of the wealth I accumulate through my hard work and determination.

Freeloaders.

No, what I am talking about is a cultural thing. Ie tone of voice in how they talk in public, like to spit everywhere even in restaurants, cut lines, shove you out of the way, etc etc.

Anyone who says China will be a super power has no idea what they are talking about, the vast majority of their people are damn poor even if they now, as a country, buy more Ferraris than anyone else.

They has no taste, and disregard for animal life and are basically savage in many regards.

What does this have to do with anything? Actually, yes I know several plumbers. My pop has been involved with designing and building houses for decades so I've been exposed to every level of technician in that domain. What's your point?

Who is the real fool? The person that demands the high salary or the company that agrees to pay it? I have no problem with the salary these guys make; just the shady deals and insider transactions that go along with their position.
