House D Jim Moran: “This simplistic notion that people who have wealth are entitled to keep it”

“Now in the last seven years we have had the highest corporate profit ever in American history. Highest corporate profit! We’ve had the highest productivity!

The American worker has produced more per person at any time, but it hasn’t been shared, and that’s the problem because we have been guided by a republican administration who believes in this simplistic notion that people who have wealth are entitled to keep it and they have an antipathy towards the means of redistributing wealth.”

Really can't put it any better than that.

The voters of VA wouldn’t put Ollie North into office, but they keep electing this alcoholic Socialist. George Washington is rolling over in his grave.

How soon will all the democratic members of congress divest themselves of their wealth and share it with the rest of us. I am waiting for Kennedy, Kerry, Pelosi, Feinstein, Boxer, etc to begin the divestment.

Some voters ~ not "voters". Moran has a district. It's full of Leftwingtards, whack-jobs and nut cases.

He's the drunkest of the drunk, plus he's got his street cred as a wifebeater and child molester.

I guess those people need a place, I just wish they'd pick a different one ~ New Jersey leaps to mind!

geez... the socialists are getting pretty confident in saying out loud what they used to only say in back rooms... Exactly. This espousing of Communism by a whole new generation of these people up in congress that the far Left wing of the Obama - Ayers coalition has been slowly placing into power. These NeoSocialists who firmly believe in the core tenants of Communism and are an antithesis to every belief and principal this nation was founded on. The Democrats used to be a lot more hidden about it. Now they are just emboldened and coming right out and saying it and intend to start moving national policy firmly in this direction. They are reverting to their early 20th Century Communist roots.

Super. Perhaps House D Moran can send some of his wealth directly to me, cut out the middleman. (I won't hold my breath.)

Notice how it's the wealth of others he wants to distribute (and keep his stock dividends, if any) and let me guess, he'll be happy to decide for us poor little peons how to share it and who gets it. Lucky us. I hope folks are really, really listening and not just holding out their hands.

"The American worker has produced more per person at any time, but it hasn’t been shared, and that’s the problem because we have been guided by a republican administration who believes in this simplistic notion that people who have wealth are entitled to keep it ..."

That is why the American worker has been among the most productive in the world. They get to keep it. Or better put, they like control of who gets the money they earn. Save some, trade some for goods, give some away....

“republican administration who believes in this simplistic notion that people who have wealth are entitled to keep it”

Yeah, that pesky little constitution is such an irritant.

Because taking stuff from people by force is so complex a thought.
