President Obama is doing his best to implement what he told Joe the Plumber during the campaign, "When you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody." As he continues to do his best to redistribute income, through projects such as the stimulus bill or the Auto Bailout, we are quickly learning that it is not good for everybody. Unemployment is actually worse with the stimulus that the POTUS said it would be if there was no stimulus, and despite the major distribution of the auto makers worth from primary investors to the unions, the company's fortunes have not improved.
Obama's Health Care scheme is a major step toward the President's goal of income redistribution. The past two months has seen the administration and Congress float ideas on how to pay for the $1.4 trillion bill for Obamacare. Some of it surrounds empty promises of savings, much of it involves tax hikes . Some of these tax hikes even conform to Obama’s promise of not taxing people making under $250,000, some do not, but they are all designed to take money out of the hands of people who drive the economy and give it to what the Democrats call "the have-nots." Anyone with $159,000+ loses income and gives it all groups below but mostly to people with incomes from $60-100,000. All with the goal of replacing the greatness of America with a vast mediocrity.

When someone says: I grew up in the “Projects” or I live in the “Projects” we all get a mental picture of government funded slums with high crime and high unemployment. Everyone living off the dole.
Obama’s vision of redistribution of wealth is a national establishment of “the projects.”
What part of this design don’t people understand?
Hear, hear. Let’s hear it for income redistribution. So long as we start with redistributing Congress’s wealth.
Let’s see:
1. Section 8 housing on the Kennedy plantation;
2. Give Kohl’s department stores to lottery losers;
3. High density housing on Biden’s plantation;
4. 0bambi’s royalties to the elderly;
5. Pelosi’s millions to all the SF hippies;
Feel free to add.
A naturally caused ruptured aneurysm could be in this punks future. With the hours he keeps, he cant be healthy. His prior cocaine use could have had lifelong negative impacts on his wellness and future health. Likewise, his smoking and drinking could have had an impact.
Hope comes in may forms.... so, I have loads of hope for him.

if the purpose of this entire exercise is to lower insurance costs --- and they want to add millions more in taxes on medical providers ---- which we all know is passed along to the consumer -- how do they propose THAT is going to lower insurance costs??????????
I went to the kaiser foundation website and used their calculator to assess the damage this health reform nonsense will do me.
I am 32 and healthy and pay for my own insurance.
My rate under any of the 4 major plans would TRIPLE.
Basically, this whole BS is yet another tax raise on me...and independent working guy so that some non tax paying slob gets another govt handout.
This is insane...a good chunk of my paycheck is already confiscated for medicare, SS and now this???
I wont even be able to use these programs by the time I ‘retire’.
