167 Monday at an AFL-CIO Labor Day event in Pittsburgh, Vice President Joe Biden ranted about the economy as it pertains to the American labor force.
Biden said, “We can’t let the changes that have taken place and crept in for the last twenty years— but they have been devastating for workers. I hope everybody in America has a chance to become millionaire and we need billionaires. But let me tell you something, man, The tax code’s not fair. It’s simply not fair. The wealthy aren’t paying their fair share. It used to be one America everybody was in on the deal. When when we were in trouble everybody jumped in. When we were doing well everybody did well but that is simply not the case anymore. Back in the mid 70’s you know the top 1 percent of Americans they owned 20 percent of all wealth in America. Today 1 percent of Americans owns 40 percent of all wealth in America.”
“It’s the way the tax code has been setup,” Biden added. “I’m hot I acknowledge that. I’m mad, I’m angry.”

Well Joe it an Obama economy…and it is getting worse
And you and your boss have been in charge of it for the past seven years.
Has Biden ever worked a day in his life?
“I hate me so much!” Biden cried, repeatedly slapping himself in the face.
Well Joe what has your boss done with economic policies over the last 7 years?? Has he failed if you come up with this as a key issue??? What would you do differently?? And if there is so much unfairness in the tax code, why didn’t you and Obama try to do anything about it?? You guys have had the power for almost 7;years now.
Hey Joe, ever listen to your boss? Like at the very beginning of his reign? About shovel ready jobs? Well there’s a shovel ready job for you as well.
let’s see ...how long has he been in office ?
You had eight years Mr. Schmoe. Eight years and bupkis. Shame on you.
And adult diapers are through the roof!!
Well Joe, your administration was what caused it.
No joe, you’re mad, loco, absurd, nonsensical, preposterous, insane, kooky, inept, incompetent and also co owner of the destruction of America. Hey Joe can you say “This is a big F******g deal”?
Well, it’s your boss’s fault, numbnuts.
He’s competing with Trump as a populist for displaced American workers. This stuff historically plays well with the dem base, well, at least the old dem base.
So sayeth Joe “Summer of Recovery” Bite-me.
This indicates to me that Biden certainly intends to run; any Dem who wants to compete in the general election is going to have to distance themselves from Obama (though criticizing him directly won’t be permitted), and this is Joe’s opening harangue.
Sounds like Perot. “Mad, “angry” and doesn’t have a clue.
Really, now? Joe is “mad, angry”??
I thought he was too bereft with grief after losing his son to feel any other emotion?
What a phony-baloney he is!
Oh, is it STILL Bush’s fault after 7 years of you and wonder boy’s admin?
