Guess who it is who wants your wealth redistributed?

"Americans break into two roughly evenly matched camps on the question of whether the government should enact heavy taxes on the rich to redistribute wealth in the U.S. Forty-seven percent believe the government should redistribute wealth in this way, while 49% disagree, similar to views Gallup found four years ago."

THROW THEM ALL OUT!

With whom do we replace them?

And how do we stop the replacements from becoming the same power mongers?

Term limits? Smashing the seniority system? Making recalls as simple as elections?

Yet, their numbers are growing and ours are not.

You miss my point, they will not work the extra to have that money given to others to who won’t work but spends their time fiddling around.

It is happening. This website has gave examples of that in various post.

Is that the same 47% who pay no income taxes?

For the most part, I'm sure that it is. The 'rats would love to make that number 51%, thus ensuring that the freeloaders hold a permanent majority over the enslaved. It is indeed a lot like 1860, only this time, the taxpayer is the new "N" word.

We're in a death spiral. These people will never understand that having a lot of rich people around is what enables this county's “poor” to be overweight, have flat screen TV’s, Blackberries with data plans and Bluetooth headsets. Truly poor people aren't overweight.

Just "here for a better life." (sob)

2009---TEXAS DREAM ACT DEMONSTRATION
Oops--"forgot" to tell us they are conspiring to destroy the USA from within.

Obama’s approval ratings appear to have steadily risen the past two months (course they only polled Dems). Getting rid of putrid Rahm, stashing the execrable Gibbs and Axelrod out of sight (behind the scenes in the reelection effort) was a good thing for Ohaha. And Pelosi out of the way, no longer praising Ohaha, and his healthcare plan, is also working well.

SEE THE SYNCHRONIZED CANDIDATE Stay tuned..... as 2012 looms, Ohaha's looking less human by the minute---more like a vote-crazed, wild-eyed robot, mouthing sound bites. From hereonin everything he says will sound like a focus group sound-bite......with pre-programmed voice inflections, and synchronized hand and head gestures.

===========================================

REFERENCE----DNC GLEEFUL There was happy talk at a recent DNC conclave of his supporters about why Ohaha "deserves" to be reelected, and, why it is important for the DNC to make that happen.

Let me count the ways----good reasons to vote for Ohaha. Billions in foreign aid to countries holding US Treasuries as China Divests 97% of Its Holdings in U.S. Treasury Bills which were funding Obama's economic recovery PLUS at his last campaign stop, Obama touted his auto bailouts (a potential $14B loss to taxpayers) as a great economic success.

That's so true. Obama is a financial genius. Heck, what's not to like? High unemployment, High food prices, High gas prices, High utility costs, Record home foreclosures, Bank closings, Investment losses, Stock market losses, A world-class culture in decline, overrun with terrorists and illegals, Trillions of US dollars guzzled by Mideast hellholes.... China dumping Treasuries, $14 Billion loss on auto bailouts AND billions in foreign aid as Americans struggle to survive. And besides, Obama needs another four years so Michelle can gallivant around the globe in designer fashions, stay at luxe hotels, and eat lobster (sniffle).

Over my lifetime of work (1965-2011) I’ve paid in about $250,000 to the SS “Fund”, including my employers contribution. I can receive some $23,300 a year in benefits.
Also during the last 25 years, I’ve saved 8% of my salary in a retirement plan having a 50% matching contribution by my employer (adding to 12%, about the same as SS contributions). The retirement plan grew to some $800,000 over the years, with very conservative investments. I can easily withdraw 4-5% yearly and preserve the capital, so $32,000 to $40,000 a year, and then, eventually, leave a nice legacy to heirs.
