During the online “Overtime” segment of Friday’s edition of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher stated that Obamacare did redistribute income and President Obama should have said so.
Maher said, “Obamacare is not putting us into the red. No. It’s actually making a little money. Because, you know, it was a redistribution of income. When they accused him that, he should have said, ‘Yeah. F*ck yeah. Exactly. That’s exactly what we’re doing. We’re taking money from people who will never miss it, and giving it to poor people who desperately need it. Sue me.'”

"Maher: Obamacare ‘Was a Redistribution of Income’ – Obama Should Have Said ‘That’s Exactly What We’re Doing’"
Right; because stealing money using the federal government to do it then giving it to those too lazy to work or here illegally is the American way........ NOT!
Cut Maher’s salary down to the level of the lowest paid employee at the station.
What you’ve got to ask right away is, “At what rate should you, Mr. Maher, be taxed to leave you living comfortably on $50,000 per year?”
I suppose he has an answer! ... but it would be interesting.
Oh wow. Just wow. Someone high up that can be heard tells the truth.
That would be my minimal income that’s being redistributed.
I’ve been paying for health insurance for 35 years straight. Never once without. The DC scumbags terminated a good plan, and took aware every damn aspect of our health care resources and routines. And we were forced to pay 70% more for it. And The Democrat Thug Party boasts that our family is among those “saved” by Obamacare.
I miss it.
You take $600/individual from me, I’m going to miss that very much.
When tshtf there will be targets
5 people could get healthcare for what I am spending, but only 3 are. What a scam.
I am paying for those people who love Obamacare.
I'm 100 percent in favor of taxing all entertainment industry nitwits 99% of their income -- that includes pro athletes, and of course Partisan Media Shills. And I want Obamacare repealed. Thanks ForYourChildren.
So Maher, you think that the working middle class should pay for those unwilling to work, to the point that work cannot afford what the “unwilling to work” are getting for free? Nice.
Sell your expensive house and cars and make yourself equal to the lower class by giving it all away. THEN I might think for a SECOND you're worth listening to.
Not just as a week-long publicity stunt, but as a permanent lifestyle. You are all for redistributing OTHERS' money, so get to it.
Tell that to the millions of middle income people who make too much to qualify for Uncle Sugar's subsidies, and who instead have pay a second mortgage every month for coverage, and to pay for coverage that they don't want and will never need.
And make no mistake...it's not just FUBOCare enrollees who are paying vastly more, everybody in traditional health plans are too. And that happened because of FUBOCare.
Redistribution of income is a legalized form of theft invented by unproductive, envious people who resent the happiness, contentment, and success of productive people. So they twist and subvert the law in order that it can be used against the productive so as to plunder, coerce, and terrorize them while handing off some of the loot to paid voters and funneling the bulk into their own pockets.
Atleast he told the truth. How often does that happen with a Democrat?
Hypocritical cesspool dwellers are ok with this if it doesn’t effect them, the mind is a wonderful thing but when it gets infected and it is tied to an unruly mouth we get this
It was obvious that it was, and they used it to force us to pay for aids treatment, sex “change” operations, abortion and death for the elderly.
New tax bracket.
Million + gross income, 90%. Only exemptions, healthcare workers, doctors, small business owners.
