"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need." -- Karl Marx, 1875
"It's a tax on insurance companies that offer Cadillac, or quite frankly, Rolls Royce policies that in essence people don't need." -- Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs, 2-25-10
The day after Pres. Obama carped about people calling him a socialist, he sent his top spokesman out to describe a plan to tax health insurance policies that provide benefits more generous than what people "need."

Obama mouthpiece using Marxist rhetoric ping to Today show list.
Socialism and Obama are both based on lies and ignorant people. Rude crude socialist Obama depends on ignorance to force his will on people..
Any time a leftist pronounces any judgement of “need”, or of the “common good”, they are in essence placing themselves and the state in the place of God.
Even thinking that you have know what the “common good” is is arrogance.
IT’S BEEN VERY WELL ESTABLISHED THAT WE SHOULD BELIEVE THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT HE SAYS.
Uhhhhhh...I THOUGHT HE WANTED EVERY ONE TO BE INSURED. WHAT A F&*&**********G HYPOCRITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN NOT TAKE ANYMORE OF THE COMMIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To call Obamie a “Socialist” is being quite kind.
I prefer to call him what he is:
A red diaper doper baby MARXIST. (thanks to Michael Savage)
Given half a chance, he will destroy America as we have known it.
This business of taxing firefighters, police and dynamite haulers for their necessarily more expensive medical insurance plans is actually quite bizarre.
I do believe Congress-critters would themselves rebel at having to pay a tax for receiving access to Bethesda Naval Hospital, et al IND ADDITION TO their other medical insurance with private companies, e.g. Kaiser-Permanente.
“It’s a tax on insurance companies that offer Cadillac, or quite frankly, Rolls Royce policies that in essence people don’t need.”
Please Gibbs, help me. I can’t do it alone. Thank God you’re there for me...
“It’s a tax on insurance companies that offer Cadillac, or quite frankly, Rolls Royce policies that in essence people don’t need.”
I don’t get it.
Since when do free people submit to being told what the NEED by ANYONE, then continue to regard themselves as free?????
“To each according to his “need”, from each according to his means.” (Karl Marx)
Nope! He is no Socialist. He is a Marxist.
When he lies, he speaks his native language.

I don't think so, he thinks you are the ignant.

What kind of Health Insurance plan do Obama and Congress have a Pinto Plan?
I mean seriously. People expecially businesses should be outraged.
The Fascist are now going to tell businesses WHAT they can develop and sell.
Next if you have a Resturant that sells food that the Furher doesn’t think is healthy, TAX them to death.
This is pure FASCISM, nothing less.
It looks like we’re ALL going to be paying, big time, for this “single payer” monstrosity.
TO EACH ACCORDING TO HIS “NEEDS”..............
Were his words read from a teleprompter? I think they have resorted to pulling a name from a hat to have the 'right' (payoff) to program the teleprompter for a day. He didn't hire all the advisers and czars for no reason.
I can't see BamKennedy in his own mind giving a 'hoot' about being called a 'socialist' unless somebody in his vast court wanted him to react or make it a topic of a day...
It’s what Socialists do, they always get the best, the rest get the crap.
Halve the size of government restore freedom.
