Did Barack "Spread the Wealth" Obama Just Blow the Election?

SPREADING THE WEALTH ...

Obama's first, second, and third priority is to get elected. If that means pandering to large numbers of people who want a free ride, he'll be happy to throw them a few crumbs as a way to get their votes. He will also turn democracy and capitalism on it's head, and villainize the affluent and successful in our society, in order to rally the masses behind him. With evangelical zeal Obama will convince his followers to replace reason with hope and belief ... to blindly follow him ... never challenge him ... and embrace his words as gospel. In the real, and unforgiving world of economics however, when you immediately gratify everyone by feasting on the goose that lays the golden eggs, the economy looses it's ability to continue generating growth and wealth. Obama is promising everyone a piece of the pie, whether they helped bake it, or not ... but, only in a socialistic, or communist state do the non-contributors demand to share equally in the property that belongs to others. Immediate gratification, and getting something for nothing, is like a drug to the malcontents, but in the big picture, every farmer knows that even if you get hungry, you never eat your seed crop ... unless you want it to be your last meal. If Obama gets elected, America will turn into a third world country, with massive government welfare programs, unable to generate jobs for it's citizens, and unable to compete in the global markets. Keep America safe, free and strong ... elect McCain/Palin on November 4th.

My Comments

I just submitted a comment about an hour ago but I don't see that it posted on your site. Is there a way to find out if it even made it through? (It did not contain anything offensive)

More Trickle-Down Economics

More Trickle-Down Economics will NOT work. More corporate tax breaks and deregulation mean executives are paid millions of dollars, jobs are outsourced and creditors become loan sharks!

Re-Unite and Rebuild!

Focus on Rebuilding Infrastructure, both physical and human.

The Physical Infrastructure that supports a society, such as roads,

bridges, water supply, waste water, power grids, flood management,

communications, etc.

The Human Infrastructure that supports and makes possible the American

Way of Life: The Middle Class, The Working Class... The Middle Income!

Who will...

1) Stop job outsourcing?

2) Bring outsourced jobs back?

3) Make quality education and job training available to all citizens?

4) Make quality health care available to all citizens?

5) Promote, support and protect small business growth?

6) Protect consumers from banking, lending and credit bureau abuse?

7) Protect the Constitutional rights of all citizens?

Re-Unite and Rebuild!

socialism

The principle of progressive taxation is AGREED between the two candidates.

Lower taxes can spur economic growth and innovation? They AGREE.

They disagree about which of these two principles should be emphasized over the other at this time of economic crisis and rising income inequality.

And they disagree about small fiddles on the tax-rate dial. In historical (and even economic) terms, the differences between them concerning both economic principles and specific tax-rate policies are TRIVIAL.

Don't buy into this politics as usual by the McCain advisors. To allow these dishonest manipulators and poll-savvy boors to make this a debate about “socialism” is to capitulate to their manipulation.

Trickle Down" economics ???

Isn't this the same idea as "Trickle Down" economics. What's the difference?? Spread the Wealth - Trickle Down - either way you are distributing money.

Joe the plumber

Again, everyone is missing the point, it's not about JOE, it's about Obama's answer, he just could not shut up, he is such an elitist. I don't care who you are, you should at least be able to ask a question of a candidate. This is just a sign of things to come, under socialist ruling, questioning the system is not permitted, remember that when you pull the lever.

JOE THE PLUMBER

He may not have a license or be registered to vote but he did ask a valid question that shows how this individual thinks.

His ideas and Carl Marxs' are paralell.
