As I said during the big bank bailout.

If you have a 2nd home that’s unoccupied, you better get someone in it before the democrats do it for you.

I told our daughter and son-in-law that. They own a 2nd home that they rent out and while they are more conservative than middle of the road, they refuse to believe me. They think I’m nuts.

I said some day you’ll get a letter, call or a knock on the door and they’ll say you are only 2 people, you own 1 4-bedroom home and 1 2-bedroom home and you don’t need all that so we’re taking the 4-bedroom home since it’s only the 2 of you.

That’s what redistribution of wealth is all about. They think I’m crazy, but I don’t doubt that it will come to that if Obama has his way.

Seems that I’ve read about that sort of thing happening in Great Britain. Moving elderly pensioners out of their homes and into apartments.

That very mindset has been at work in the UK. Somehow it is "unfair" for elderly "householders" to occupy a large home (that they own outright), while the younger generation is having trouble finding housing. They want to force the old people out of their homes and hand the homes over to "younger" people who "need" them. Liberal mental illness is a global problem.

That is what they did in Cuba when Castro took over.
