Oh. My. God.
WHAT on GOD’S GREEN EARTH are PEOPLE WITH A EFFING “D” AFTER THEIR NAME DOING ANYTHING WITH FINANCES IN THIS COUNTRY????????????????????
The bigger mystery is why people vote for them.
Maybe we should listen more closely to the rantings of Jesse Jackson. He’s a nutcase, for sure, but maybe he lets slip some clues once in a while.
Several years ago JJ was talking about the problems with - I believe - Social Security. He then said that Federal employees have “X” dollars in their private retirement accounts and “why can’t we have some of that money?” I remember screaming - “because it doesn’t belong to you!”
We’re at the point where they could do just that - and BO is out there talking about trickle up economics. How is he going to accomplish that? Trickle down confiscation and redistribution.
So, let me get this straight. They glom onto an additional $80 billion in annual tax revenues, AND then confiscate a pittance from the lower echelon who wouldn’t/couldn’t contribute. Maybe they even redistribute a small percentage to the masses under the guise of helping...
Boy, am I glad my nickname is Dick and not my appellation.
