2. Now how the heck have I missed all of Obama's "redistribution" speeches? |
|
Have I somehow managed to be on the can every time Obama talks like a "pure socialist"? For two years?
Granted, there was the Cuban meatball sandwich incident, but that was squarely back in the Bush administration days.

Businesses hardly pay any taxes. Or should we call them modern day pirates?

6. Boy, the rich and powerful just whine whine whine. |
|
Imagine if we got to hear from the MAJORITY of us who have barely gotten by during this recession.
INstead, we have to hear from the rich, who OWN the media.
Non-stop.
I'm fed up with it.

7. Dude, you're a 70-year old billionaire.... |
|
...Why don't you take a decade or two off from work and try spending some of it. Or **gasp** paying your employees more.
Every mortal need you have is taken care of. Going for more now is just a frikkin game to you. Let somebody else play.

11. what a pile of crap... blaming "socialist" obama for business climate and drop in his business... |
|
solipsistic strawman baloney. the lack of regulatory rigor got us into this mess and the lack of consumer demand is a direct result of RW reverse robin hood financial and wage policies..take from the poor and give to the rich.. Obama is not socialism or "redistribution".. it's about fairness, and these whiney billionaires who made out like bandits for decades are now acting like spoiled children who don't want to share their toys. count wynn among the group of despicable selfish wealthy assholes who could care less about average americans, only about his share of the pie.

12. I hope he chokes to death painfully and on security tape that goes viral to TMZ. |
|
That filthy piece of shit scum bag can lick my ass before I would EVER consider anything he has to say about anything worthwhile.
He is no titan of industry, nor is he a "job creator", what he is though is a modern-day version of the old-world aristocracy. He is the new landed gentry. And they can all likewise lick my ass. They want feudalism and good little serfs to work the fields for them while them live in the castle and lord over us mere mortals by their birth rights and the divine right of kings.
Well fuck that and fuck them too.

13. If I understand his point... |
|
What he's saying is that he--and the rest of the millionaire/billionaire business community--will not be investing in American jobs or our economy until Obama is out of office because they're afraid of Obama's socialist policies.
So if the "job creators" aren't doing anything to create jobs, then what good are they?
I say screw 'em, take their money, and reinvest it where it's most needed since they seem unwilling to do so.
It's an ironic position. His inaction because he fears "socialism" is the very action that will cause socialism to rise.
