If Obama repeals the Bush tax cuts Joe will pay more taxes and either way America is not about tearing down those who work hard to be successful to lift up those who do not. Spreading the money are around is stupid. The Government is not people’s parents handing out allowances and should not be. Joe the Plumber is right.

There was a time when churches and charities took care of the 'needy'. At some point the government stepped in and it's been downhill ever since.

Now, financial brokerage houses and banks are the "needy" and the government is stepping in again, and I'm supposed to believe things will soon be looking up?

We saw what the Great Society did to the black family. I get the feeling we might be getting LBJ'd again only this time it'll be all our families.

But, this is nothing new, we've been heading down this road many years yet it pains us nonetheless to have it presented to us so blatantly in the form of a presidential candidate whose message, though tailored to the middle class, is best prepared for some jungle junta aiming to overthrow a corrupt regime that's been keeping the peasant down.

As Joe pointed out, our poor have cell phones.
