Despite pious rhetoric on the left about "asking" the more fortunate for more money, the government does not "ask" anything. It seizes what it wants by force. If you don't pay up, it can take not only your paycheck, it can seize your bank account, put a lien on your home and/or put you in federal prison. So please don't insult our intelligence by talking piously about "asking." Amazing. Sowell's the best...

0bama is an expert at lying and scamming, I suppose it’s luck he got where he’s at but it’s criminal.

A robber once “asked” me for my wallet. He was so nice about it, I obliged.

You cannot take any people, of any color, and exempt them from the requirements of civilization including work, behavioral standards, ... that the clever intelligentsia disdain without ruinous consequences to them and to society at large.
That has to be one of my favorite Sowellisms to date.

The out for this is the self hating modifier. So Tom Sowell is a self hating black. Problem solved!
To: fwdude
I have quoted Sowell to a libinlaw and when they disagreed,
I said “you must be a racist, because you disagree with a black man. At least, that’s what we’ve been hearing since Obama was running for office.”
No coherent response, of course, besides “that’s absurd”.

Sowell is back on.
Obama is the one who won the lottery. He was a shiny tool the lily white left found to use to get into the highest office of the land, to gain power for those who thought the Soviet Union was a great idea. When he walked in with his tan skin, nappy hair, talking Marx in white diction, wowie!! Billy Ayers could stop blowing up his girlfriends in the basement: with a sap like this Obama guy (african name!! The cherry on top!!), he could walk right into the front door of the White House.
The mass adoration he’d always sought, plus a bevy of handsome sex partners, all the money he could ever spend for life, and it would only cost him behaving as their puppet for eight years. Big whoop, he agreed with it all, already! He hated the country already! How much luckier could one gay semi black illegal alien get!?!

>>> The real question is whether the investment of wealth is likely to be done better by those who created that wealth in the first place or by politicians.
Politicians, and the ever ginormous bureaucrats/gubmint paper pushers. And universal abysmal results. Show us something/anything they do well.
Unlike a private business, if you suck at doing something, you will go under real soon. But not gubmints, all levels of gubmints.

I’m surprised they don’t respond that Sowell isn’t “black enough.”

Ironic, isn’t it? Dr. Sowell descended from genuine African slaves. ObaMao’s forebears were of the people who captured and sold them.

The top earners provide so much benefit to society, we’d be much better off not taxing them at all — or at least changing tax laws so that all income above $1 million per year is tax free. Think of all the money that would STAY IN THE ECONOMY if we did that. More investment capital.

Despite pious rhetoric on the left about "asking" the more fortunate for more money, the government does not "ask" anything. It seizes what it wants by force. If you don't pay up, it can take not only your paycheck, it can seize your bank account, put a lien on your home and/or put you in federal prison. Not only does the government not "ask" for your tax money, they force you to be a government accountant and keep records year round for an idiotic tax system, and to pay a stranger to save you from Uncle's IRS henchmen. The government is much kinder to the non working and to the illegal aliens, however.

To: jazusamo
They just want "the rich" to pay their undefined "fair share" of taxes. This "fair share" must remain undefined because all it really means is "more." Once you have defined it whether at 30 percent, 60 percent or 90 percent you wouldn't be able to come back for more. Truer words have not been written.
