Direct from the Messiah.
This is as close to a straight answer as you’ll get. At a campaign stop a plumber complained to Senator Obama about his tax burden. Rather than the usual vilification of the bourgeoisie, the candidate said:
It’s not that I want to punish your success. I just want to make sure that everybody that is behind you, that they have a chance for success too.
So success is a finite commodity that has to be government regulated. Sounds like the guarantee of equal outcomes rather than that of equal opportunities.
In other words, the redistribution of wealth.
At least he’s being a little more forthcoming (accidentally?) than his usual cotton candy platitudes. C’mon Barry, just be yourself and let the voters see what you’re made of. Come right out and say that your constituents support you because of the guaranteed gravy train paid for by us taxpayers. At least you’ll be honest for once.
