Wow, France's newly elected President the Socialist Mr. Francois Hollande revealed his desire to mimic the ideology of Barack Hussein Obama, by attacking the rich to pay for all the ridiculous handout programs he seems to favor, as Mr. Obama does. Interesting that as he mimics Mr. Obama's domestic policies, other nations such as Germany fearing another economic collapse claim Hollande's desire to renegotiate Europe's fiscal pact is "not possible". In the first linked article: Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher once said, socialism works until you run out of other people's money, and as long as there are wealthy citizens, and a productive class of workers earning income, the ability to siphon off their wealth through taxation gives politicians the capacity to keep promising free services to people who themselves do not earn it. Thanks Maggie... That sums it up very nicely.
