For the last few months, the current Looter in Chief has been telling us that low taxes which let people keep and spend more of their own money is somehow “giving” money to the “rich,” and that only government can create jobs by spending trillions of dollars it doesn’t have but plans to steal from the “rich” later. So how are they spending the “stimulus” money which they claim is supposed to help “main street” instead of the eeevil, rich corporations? Well, it appears that a few billion will be going to help Microsoft build a bridge connecting two of their parking lots.
Or, in other words corporations making jobs = “trickle down” economics and “failed policy.” Raising taxes and creating a Federal Ponzi scheme where the money is filtered through the pockets of politicians, bureaucrats, and lobbyists to accomplish the exact same thing = “Change You can Believe in!”
Can someone explain to me the difference between Bernie Madoff and President Obama? I mean, aside from the fact that Madoff’s victims willingly gave him money but the taxpayers are coerced at gun point..

Or, “change is all you’ll have left in your pocket when he’s done”.
I’m more worried that the opposite will happen, and we’ll end up needing wheelbarrows to haul hyper-inflated cash around to buy a loaf of bread.
If you’ve never taken a look at Zimbabwe money before, it’s a shock, and you won’t need wheelbarrows.
