I wish to jog your memory. During the first few days of the Gulf Oil Spill, his most prominent speech was castigating investment bankers. He said: that at some point, you have earned enough (money). Meaning, if you earn too much money, you are doing something wrong.
Today, witness: his plan for preventing a tax increase applies only to those earning less than $250K. OK, since when is some earning $250K a ‘millionaire’? Is Obama’s calculator goofed up somehow?
This is classic class warfare right out of the pages of Das Kapital by Karl Marx. It is the proletariat (those earning less than $250K) vs. the bourgeoisie (who earn more than $250K).
There is one aspect of Obama’s attitude that annoys me. Of those earning more than $250K, these moneys are the result of blood, sweat, and tears. This is the reward for difficult, daily, back-breaking work; not the result of the idle rich who win the powerball lottery every other month.
