We have this exchange between Barry and a small business owner, a plumber, in Ohio, this week:
Plumber: Your new tax plan is going to tax me more, isn’t it?
Obama: It’s not that I want to punish your success, I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got the chance at success too … I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.
Here is a link to the video of this exchange.
So Obama has basically shown the canard of his supposed middle class tax cuts and his claims to help small businesses. It is all about the redistribution of wealth, disincentivizing individual achievement, and making us all devoted sheep of the Beloved Leader.
