Obama's 4T spending plan veiled communism

http://www.aol.com/article/2015/02/0...65707159599855

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is sending Congress a $4 trillion budget Monday that seeks to raise taxes on wealthier Americans and corporations and use the extra income to lift the fortunes of families who have felt squeezed during tough economic times.

Of course to us that understand the significance of this paragraph which is part seize and spread the wealth and part sales pitch to those who believe in the inequality line of the libs know it isn't veiled. Liberals love chaos, catastrophe and hardship always keeping society segregated essentially divide and conquer society. Libs tend to be well to do, educated and financially privileged who tend to treat everyone else as too stupid and require Big Gov to take care of them. Libs have no faith in the spirit of man the hardship and need that forces great people to rise like the Phoenix from this. I refuse to allow myself and my family to get to the point or be convinced of the point that it is someone else s fault they cannot figure out how to succeed in America. I will never be on my knees so beaten by society so bad I will bend to the whims of a privileged actor in the white house telling me I am a have not. Ask not what you can do for America THIS is what America should be doing for you.

I want some free money. Perhaps Mr Obama could cut a few of us a check from his personal bank account.

I've never seen anything he has done as being "veiled", and especially this budget. He said that he was going to "fundamentally change America", he has.
Communist, Islamist.

Punish producers...
After all, you didn't build/earn that...
Bread and circuses...anesthetize the masses...kill motivation...
Reward laziness and spread discontent...
BIG GOV will provide all...

Rugged individualism, free markets and low taxes are waaayyyyy overrated.
America is no more exceptional than Greece...

Maybe King George had the right model...we are just coming full circle...

All hail King berry the divine one !

No, your taxes are going up and your pay and benefits will be cut, because you were stupid enough to join the military and actually believe all of those promises that were made.

The only ones who will see more money will be the takers.

Silly!

FWIW, the Wall Street Journal offers a summary of the proposed budget for the VA here.

MOO, labelling the budget as Communism is not sustainable given Marx's hostility towards liberalism and the middle class.

Libs are bottom feeding elitest who want all that are not in their elite club to be subservant citizens unequal to themselves. They also seem to want to ensure that initiative is ruined by giving away incentives to keep people from having a reason to achieve even if it is marginally better than what the Gov can give them. Creating policies that destroy the free market the advent of licensure taking away the individuals ability to earn a living on his own terms without getting approval from the state. Damn......I am going to re-read Wealth of Nations again long live the spirit of Adam Smith

Why do I get the idea one of his guiding references was " Steal This Book" ? Abbie would be proud...

Edit: In the book, Hoffman referred to America as the "Pig Empire" and stated that it was not immoral to steal from it: In fact, Hoffman wrote, it was immoral not to do so
