I take Obama seriously.

I also think he believes in his leftest views.

But...

His leftest view implemented will produce the exact opposite of his stated goals. That’s why he’s a fool. Foolish behavior produces the opposite of the desired outcome. Not only will the poor be poorer, so will everyone else.

Basically his solutions are feel good solutions that don't take into account the long term consequences. You can't take from productive people and give it to nonproductive people and increase a nation's wealth. It does just the opposite. Money is a tool. Take away that tool from people who know how to use it and give it to those who don't and we as a nation produce less. The less we produce the poorer we all are and the less we can do on any number of fronts.

"You can't take from productive people and give it to nonproductive people and increase a nation's wealth."

How can Hussein promise tax cuts to those who pay no income taxes?

He has promised all low wage earners a $500 to$1000 rebate on the first $1000 of "payroll tax", Social Security. Everyone from paperboy to burger flipper pays Social Security.

These kids, these Obamaniacs have read the Obamanifesto.

They expect to never get Social Security. Obama says they shouldn't have to pay it.

Everyone has talked about the day the younger generation refuses to pay for retirees. Obama says the time has come.
