That's pure crap. He used those words once, yes. But not to mean
what you right wong wackos say it means.


How does it not mean "Take my money and give it to somebody else"? Or
is he doing something different with it?


Since 80% of the income gains in the previous 8 years went to the richest 1% of
Americans, it could consist of changing tax laws to encourage businesses that
actually hire employees and keep them working and remove the tax advantages of
exporting jubs overseas. It could be support of laws to encourage manufacturing
within our borders. It could be the removal of laws that give miniscule tax cuts
to the middle class, but gigantic ones to the richest 2%.

You just want to change one class warfare for another.

Why not just confiscate _everything_ over $1M per year? But remember
that would include basketball and football players and rappers. No
exclusions.

As Warren Buffet said. We are having class warfare, and my class is winning. Of
course, he has enough common sense to not approve. He, and Bill Gates Sr both
thing the rich should pay more taxes.

The idea that those that profit overwhelmingly from our government should be
unwilling to pay a little to support it is just silly. Nobody is even suggesting
anything as ludicrous as what you just did except for wackos.

There is no law that says they can't pay more. Why don't they do that?
99% of Hollywood could do the same. Drive used cars, live in 2 bdr.
apartments and sent their millions to help those people they want me
to?

uniform standards to keep put some brakes on healthcare costs...

As much as the Federal Deficit, Entitlement spending and Defense
Spending are difficult to curtail, Healtcare cost are still expecting to
double in another ten years, with or without HCR.


There were many alternatives to the current socialist takeover of 1/6
of the US economy that wouldn't have cost a dime. Sale across state
lines for example. Creation of sales pools so that individuals could
take advantage of bulk rates that large employers get.

Hundreds of large employers have now received exemptions from
obamacare requirements. Because it would have forced them to curtail
or drop employee benefits. Great plan.

Although that is the true goal of obamacare to eliminate insurance
companies.

Does anyone here expect to buy car insurance after you crash? Fire
insurance after your house burns down? If you do it's welfare, not
insurance.

And it wasn't that long ago that the top margina; tax rate was 91%. The rich
suffer so. Why should they pay their share.
