Mr. Obama, he said, was “declaring war on investors, entrepreneurs, small businesses, large corporations, and private-equity and venture-capital funds.”

that’s what class warfare and redistributing the wealth entails...
If that man really said that, it just about covers the entire producing segment of society. So, if they get fought successfully, where then does the money come from to fuel his plans?
Here’s an excerpt from a thread which has the entire booklet “The Revolution Was” - written in 1938 and talking about the new deal. The excerpt (well - the whole thing really) could have been written 71 years later!

And so the first problem was solved. The seat of government was captured by ballot, according to law.
PROBLEM TWO
TO SEIZE ECONOMIC POWER
This was the critical problem. The brilliant solution of it will doubtless make a classic chapter in the textbooks of revolutionary technic. In a highly evolved money economy, such as this one, the shortest and surest road. to economic power would be what? It would be control of money, banking, and credit. The New Deal knew that answer. It knew also the steps and how to take them, and above all, it knew its opportunity.
It arrived at the seat of government in the midst of that well known phenomenon called a banking crisis.....
It is true that people wanted action. It is true that they were in a mood to accept any pain-killer.... and the President took advantage of it to make the first startling exposition of New Deal philosophy.....
But what it [emergency] meant to the President, as nobody then knew, was a very different thing. Writing a year later, in his book, On Our Way, he said: “Strictly speaking, the banking crisis lasted only one week.... But the full meaning of that word emergency related to far more than banks... It could be cured only by a complete reorganization and measured control of the economic structure....It called for a long series of new laws, new administrative agencies. It required separate measures affecting different subjects; but all of them component parts of a fairly definite broad plan.” [End of FDR quotes!]
And therein lay the meaning the only consistent meaning of a series of acts touching money, banking and credit which, debated as monetary policy, made no sense whatever.
.....that made everything legal after the fact: and it was the first use of Congress as a rubber stamp..... Congress did not write any of these acts. It received them from the White House and passed them.
