MSNBC Expert Calls for a List of the Rich to Pressure Them to ‘Give Back’
The Blaze ^ | Oct. 17, 2011 | Mike Opelka

Posted on 10/17/2011 11:03:49 AM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

Dr. Zbigniew Brzezinski, a former National Security Advisor to President Carter and a frequent guest on his daughter Mika’s MSNBC program, made a series of strange statements during his segment on “Morning Joe” earlier today.

Talking with the MSNBC crew about the concentration of wealth in America as motivation for “Occupy Wall Street,” Dr. Brzezinski seems to believe that publishing the names of people who make a lot of money would be helpful in redistributing wealth:

Brzezinski wants anyone making a lot of money to be pointed out, but a short time later he says he does not want Wall Street “demonized.” Then, he returns to his demonizing of people who legally earn a lot of money and spend it in ways that apparently he would not. Pay close attention to his statements about “control.”

“We have to have disclosure.”

“We have to have transparency.”

“We have to have control.”

“More fair distribution of Social Responsibility through taxation and elimination of loopholes.”

“And pressure even on the rich to avoid flaunting their wealth.”

“We have to have control.”

One of his more honest self-defining comments.

Photobucket What you liberals don't get, is that in America, businesses are allowed to make a profit, make the decisions they choose, as long as they obey the law. It's called freedom. If corporations are violating LAW, they can be taken to court. Also, there are legislative checks in place protecting workers and consumer safety. Politicians write those laws, not the corporations. And let's not forget about the unions that make it possible for an uneducated worked to start at $40 per hour with full benefits. They gouge companies for every penny possible. These firms don't owe you or me. These foolish Occupy Wall Street protestors, owe themselves. If you don't like these companies, don't work or them, don't buy their stock, don't buy their products, or go out and start your own business. Risk...reward...work. America is predicated on freeedom, making a living, not on envy and excuses. If you want to blame someone, blame the incompetent socialist president and congress your fellow protestors elected. It's called acountability. The rich, which I have never been, don't us a damn thing. Believe it or not, they have rights to pursue the life of their choosing just like you. If liberals truly want to destroy this country, see it become an impoverished, entitlement cesspool, keep attacking those who made it what it is.

#1 on that list ought to be Peter Lewis - the owner of Progressive Insurance, who is a communist and good, tight friend of George Soros. Both men have donated millions to destroying the United States.

Listen to David Horowitz and Pat Caddell Explain the Radical Take-over of the United States. (This is a long 2-video viewing, but it is a very good one. They name some names in these two videos.)

I caught that part, but what amazed me is how Zbig took a shot at Obama. He said America had abdicated it’s leadership role. On the financial front, and in Middle East negotiations. I think at some point he realized how bad he was making Obama sound, so he tried to spin it to make it sound like it was systemic. That the system was broken.

But, make no mistake, it was a direct hit on Obama.

From a dirty old commie like Zbig, it was amazing.

“Well I want zbigniew and all other communists to be put into in jail.”

...and he can take his ugly daughter with him. Zbigniew is an excellent example of the danger of letting foreign Leftists infiltrate our political system.

He, in conjunction with Obama’s OWS tactics, is inviting violence against those perceived as rich.

Hey, boslshevik scum Brzhinski!

A leader goes first!

Show us the cancelled check that you wrote to the nanny government to “give back” some of the fat you enjoy from living large off your political hackery.

What have you done to EARN any money since the Carter administration was ejected?

What a PIG.

We have to have “control” that’s such an amazing statement. Who is this “WE” Zbig?? These people won't be happy until someone gets hurt and at that point they will blame it on right wing talk radio.

You’re welcome, Zbiggy.

I think Andrew Breitbart needs to dig up Zbignew’s home address, his office address, his personal cell phone number, the location of the country club where he spends most of his time, and his 1040’s for the years 1977-2011 inclusive and post them all on the web.
