I think you might have misread that. It says Robin Hood in Reverse which, btw, would mean that he robbed from the poor and gave to the rich.


Yeah, I know, but I chose to ignore his lie in direct proportion to the actual Truth--which I then felt was incumbent upon me to re-re-re-reiterate.

Well considering that, as much as the government is concerned, corporations and businesses are people, then the point is moot.


No. The whole point it demagoguery and to make it look like they're defending the poor and down-trodden from the mean capitalists.

I should clarify that there are two orders of evil capitalists: The Lawbreakers, who should be punished just like any individual lawbreaker, and the Crony-Capitalists who "work with" government officials to gain themselves advantageous legislation--that is, advantageous for themselves and against their competition. Of course the corrupt government officials with the greasy palms never look bad, recall, they make the laws.



Yes, because every business model shows that increased profit or revenue MUST = expanding business ventures...

Oh wait. No they don't...

No, the rich make more money then the poor. And they don't spend all of it every year, or at least the ones who actually want to BE rich instead of just looking like they are. A person can make a 6 figure salary and have negative net worth. Considering that net worth is used to decide who are the richest people in the world, I "assume" this is the criteria you're using to define who is rich.



Sorry...the rich pay more total taxes.

Percentiles Ranked by AGI AGI Threshold on Percentiles Percentage of Federal Personal Income Tax Paid

Top 1% $343,927 36.73

Top 5% $154,643 58.66

Top 10% $112,124 70.47

Top 25% $66,193 87.30

Top 50% $32,396 97.75

Bottom 50% <$32,396 2.25

From... https://ntu.org/tax-basics/who-pays-income-taxes.html

Notice the abismal 2.25% of the bottom 50%.

The top 1% pay more than the bottom 50%.

None of that matters. It is the percentage paid vs the percentage they benefit from.

Obama for America TV Ad




Serious question here, do our candidates stand for ANYTHING? All they do is clog our airwaves with commercial after commercial about how the other guy is horrible (I'm frankly surprised Hitler comparisons haven't cropped up yet). I don't remember ever seeing a commercial by any of them where they actually said what THEY plan on doing. It's almost as if they don't actually have a plan.

This one from 2007 should show what Obama did try for once he won. He has tried to get both sides together. Sadly he was spot on and the divisions just entrenched.
