How is it different for the gov’t to take my $$ and give it to someone who “needs” it than it is for them to take my car and give it to someone who “needs” it? When will they send me some homeless “family” to live in my spare bedroom?
That was the opportunity missed during the ‘Joe The Plumber’ incident.
I would have said to Obama:
‘If I start a business I might hire my neighbor. We might become friends. Our kids might play baseball together. In other words, we build a community.
If I start a business and pay exorbitant taxes then I can’t afford to hire him. He goes on unemployment and receives my money by force and mutual resentment is assured. Who does that scenario benefit other than a politician and a paper pusher in DC?’
