Obama via NY Times:”Just tax the heck out of people at the end and just redistribute it,”
Here is an excerpt from NY Times interview with Obama.
During my recent conversation with Obama, he mentioned Sam’s Club Republicanism in a different context, and I asked him if he had read “Grand New Party.” He hadn’t, he said, so I read him the line about dependence and condescension and asked for his reaction.
He said it made him think of Warren Buffett, an Obama supporter, who, if anything, might argue that he wasn’t going far enough to change the tax code. “If you talk to Warren, he’ll tell you his preference is not to meddle in the economy at all — let the market work, however way it’s going to work, and then just tax the heck out of people at the end and just redistribute it,” Obama said. “That way you’re not impeding efficiency, and you’re achieving equity on the back end.” He continued by saying that he thought there was some merit in Buffett’s argument. But, he said: “I do think that what the argument may miss is the sense of control that we want individuals to have in determining their own career paths, making their own life choices and so forth. And I also think you want to instill that sense of self-reliance and that what you do will help determine outcomes.”

Welcome to the other puppet of the New World Order. Obama is not afraid to ‘change times and the laws’ for the sake of a modern day tower of Babel (Globalism). He has Zgniew Brezenski (however you spell it) as his advisor, he is a member of the tri-lateral CFR group, and he wants to reward the poor for not working while penalizing the rich for success. Oh yeah and by the way, see if you can’t pick on a plumber in the process. Make his imperfection a spectacle while you have no accountability to the public. Give us a copy of your real birth certificate instead of a copy online! It is amazing what scanner technology is capable of doing in anyone’s favor.
Say hello to a new currency in 2009! Compliments of the CFR, IMF, Trilateral Comm., and Brezinski. Say goodbye to Israel and the US.
Hey Obama,
Did you know that if you penalize the wealthy and take more from them, then you oppress their employees? How will they give their little people raises when you want to play Robin Hood?
Obama, we have a real savior named Jesus who doesn’t penalize people for their hard work. You are just a man like the rest of us. If you believe that it is your responsibility to make the govt. our god (little ‘g’ emphasized),then you are making a big mistake. Let the hard working man enjoy his prosperity while enabling him to reward his employees with higher wages. Pass the Fair Tax law, so that we don’t continue on being punished for success.
Nero brought change to Rome. Antiochus 4 changed laws in his provinces. They also wreaked havoc on the innocent. What kind of change do you promise that will be any different? Are you no different than Nimrod? He thought what he was doing was right.
That is scary and should be getting broadcasted everywhere.
