"There are no heroes, no great Americans other than The People who express the National Will through Government. As if the nation’s entrepreneurs all stand on the shoulders of the giants at the Commerce Department and the Small Business Administration and the Energy Department. If entrepreneurs really add no value to the efforts of government, why not not tax them at 90%? That way, more money for government — the “somebody else” in the Obama statement — to create more middle-class prosperity."

Right on.

This Statist has to go.

Are not public or common goods available to all? If so, why should there existence be a justification for taxing one man more than another?

At the very least, he is a raging ideologue. At worst, he is a communist.

My one fear here is: he will not go easily if he does not win in November. His type do not take failure well.

“There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me —...You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.”

World-class, blue-ribbon, industrial strength, wall-to-wall, unalloyed BS!!! Where is the MSM..the 'watchdog of the people's interest'? Is there not ONE level headed and informed individual calling him/herself a professional who will challenge this drivel?

Does he not think free enterprise is an essential part of “this unbelievable American system”?


Is it possible that he really does mean “this unbelievable American system” is a total kludge of rampant individualism that must be contained and controlled? And what better way to control it but through Government and Regulations until only those who conform are left.

""""""If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help.""""""

Oh, if only Eli Whitney, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford & others could talk now and tell us what Gov't agency helped them. In fact it was a government agency I believe that told Edison he would never succeed without an education, rofl.

Zero's illiterate base will believe anything he says, and carry the message for him, i.e., You rich bastards did nothing for us, get it?

I demand his BASE voters, give up their cars, lights, phones and all things tech., drink your water from your own well, (dig it first), get a wagon and pull it themselves for a change, they can have my YOKE.

One would think the presumptive Republican presidential candidate could have a field day with this - all the way to November!
