The GOP and their wealthy funders are renewing their cry of "wealth redistribution."

A meme that makes poor whites believe they are wealthy and that the government is taking their money and giving it to minorities, immigrants etc.
Our spokespeople need to make it very clear that BOTH parties are into wealth distribution. The difference is that Republicans what wealth distribution upward so that they get all the benefits of paying no taxes while getting working men and women to foot the bill for building and rebuilding corporate infrastructure, covering their business losses, and generally passing legislation that benefits their families and their businesses.

Dems want to ensure that the taxes they pay are distributed downward and across the population to ensure an adequate social safety net for the elderly, the disenfranchised, veterans, our children, and all of have access to affordable healthcare and housing.

Every time the GOP opens their smarmy mouths to talk about their notion of wealth redistribution and socialism, we need our folks to jump on their evil, selfish memes with a rapid response that clearly explains the differences.
