Obama In 1998: "I Actually Believe In Redistribution"

Should one of us show all the dumb threads about Romney's supposed gaffe?
:eusa_whistle:

Repetitive topics are annoying but to be expected. But this is beyond the norm. We're talking about identical topic titles, identical opening posts of nothing more than a link to the video.

Bizarre.

.

Nope... just business as usual here at USMB.

Obama is done. Stick a fork in him.
 
I think redistribution of wealth from the poor and the middle class to the top 1% hasn't been good for the country. In fact, it's been a disaster.

The only 'distribution' of income is from the government to the "poor" via in-kind transfers.

Outside of that, income is earned via voluntary actions, not 'distributed.'

You may learn that when you take your trip to the United States.
 
You know the right are desperate when they bring up stuff that was discussed at length in the 2008 campaign!:eusa_boohoo:
 
Obama has a brother that lives in squalor, and illiegal alien Aunt that is destitute, and a drunkard Uncle who's also here illegally. Yes, He believes in "redistribution" as long as you take it from someone else.....:lol:
To the harpies of redistribution, redistribution is only fair when it applies to other people. :rolleyes:



You are correct Becki. Do you remember back in Manhattan when the the litter on the streets known as Occupy Wall Street was stinking up the city? Well, homeless people would come in and take their food, steal some of their personal belongings, several lap tops were stolen from them, too. And then this OWS trash had the nerve to complain about their stuff being stolen? Here OWS wants to steal from people who are earning more, so one would think that since they at OWS are all better off than those homeless people, they would be a little more sympathetic and understanding of why those homeless people did what they did.

I truly enjoyed seeing this happen to those at OWS, and their reactions more than prove your reply correct Becki
 
I heard that video is a fabrication and has been debunked.
Do you really want us to rerun Obama's "Spread the wealth" comment to Joe the plumber to show your lie for what it is, Lakhota?

Don't doggone push me or you'll get his little Marxist whinings before he was elected a mile long. And that is a promise you can count on.

OWS? :lmao:

So it doesn't feel very good when it's their wealth that gets "spread around," lol. :D
 
Compare the media attention given to this remarkable admission to Mitt Romney's comment that government-dependent people aren't likely to vote for him...
 
Old news. I heard this back in 2008.

Did you guys all get the same email or something?

A bunch of people oon here do that. As soon as they see something on CNN or Fox they run to their computer so they can be the first to parrot it.
 
Fake video!

Did Obama or did not Obama say to Joe the plumber he wants us to Share the wealth.. Same thing is what he is saying here but using bigger words :badgrin:

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUvwKVvp3-o]'Joe the Plumber' Becomes Focus of Debate - YouTube[/ame]
 
In the last 30 years 80% of the increase in after tax income has gone to the top 10%.

The class war is over. The rich won.
 
The wealth has already been redistributed.....

Obama did say that he believes in spreading the wealth around. Remember, he said that to Joe the Plumber after Joe asked a question. The liberals panicked at his slip up and immediately attacked some guy for asking a question. They investigated Joe and tried to ruin him. All because they couldn't deal with Obama telling the truth about his plans for other peoples' money.

After the media went after Joe, we knew more about him in one week than we still know about Obama. The media is good at that, well when they bother anyway.

If you don't believe words that come out of Obama's own mouth, just look at his policies and you'll see he means it when he says the wealth should be spread around. Welfare rolls are the highest ever. Unemployment is the highest ever. Foreclosures are the highest ever. And he thinks the grade he deserves is incomplete. He means that he needs more time to complete the destruction of capitalism so he can rebuild the country the way he wants. His huge ego causes him to believe he is smarter than our forefathers and he seems to think they got it wrong.

I have NEVER heard this video BEFORE--Nice Try---and I pay attention to politics like no one else. :badgrin::badgrin: If this video would have been out in 2008 when McCain was running for office--it would have been in every ADD on every station through-out the nation.

But it finally explains it. Why there are 47% of this nation that pay no federal income tax--and why Obama has continually pounded the drum to raise taxes on the 200K crowd and over.

Here are the 47% er's and as you can see--the majority of them would not be considered "pennyless"---:eusa_whistle:

President Obama falls into the latter camp. He has proposed increasing the income tax burden on families making more than $250,000 and individuals making more than $200,000, while offering new measures to reduce the tax bite for most Americans making less.

One of Obama's proposals is to extend the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts for everyone except high-income tax filers, which was the group that derived the most benefit from those cuts.

As a result, under Obama's budget, he would keep the ranks of the non-payers higher than they would otherwise be.

Along with this comment from a DEMOCRAT CEO.

"I'm saying it bluntly, that this administration is the greatest wet blanket to business, progress and job creation in my lifetime. A lot of people don't want to say that. They'll say, 'Oh God, don't be attacking Obama.' Well, this is Obama's deal, and it's Obama that's responsible for this fear in America."

"The guy [Obama] keeps making speeches about redistribution, and maybe 'we ought to do something to businesses that don't invest or hold too much money.' We haven't heard that kind of talk except from pure socialists."

"Business is being hammered. The business community in this country is frightened to death of the weird political philosophy of the president of the United States. Until he's gone, everybody's going to be sitting on their thumbs."

If a Republican president saved GM, got Bin Laden in a special opts, gave the biggest working class tax cut in American history, signed a bill authorizing the reduction of spending by 15%, all the while reversing the most devastating economic collapse in 80 years....the Republicans would hail him as the Second Coming of Christ!

Half of Americans pay no taxes? This is the Big Republican Lie.

81% of Americans pay federal taxes including payroll taxes for Medicare and Social Security and income taxes. In addition they also pay state taxes, sales taxes and property taxes.

Of the 19% who pay no federal taxes 95% are elderly on fixed incomes or working families.

What kind of political party attacks the elderly and the working poor?.....the Republican Party.
