Another socialist Kos-tard demonstrates why I despise the far left.
When Hillary Clinton uttered her now-famous “I want to take those profits” Marxist harangue, she was demonstrating the worst of Democrat philosophy: you don’t deserve to keep your money, I know better what to do with it and will use the government to forceably take it from you.
A similar screed was posted this week on a Daily Kos blog, further affirming in my mind the derangement of the socialist base within the Democrat party. (h/t: Gone Mild)
We’ve reached the point where Republican voters can claim the philosophy of absolute greed.
“I make a great deal of money through my own hard work. I don’t want to pay for someone else’s child to eat breakfast at school anymore.”Get that? She makes not just enough money, but a “great deal of money.” How dare anyone take it away for something so frivolous as feeding a poor child? And yet Republicans, through their actions in blurring the lines between church and state, have become the “party of faith.” Because they say so. Because they are bold in their actions and snarling in their defense.
We need to be just as adamant. We need to not hide behind any abstraction or evasion. We need to be unafraid to address this voter and say “I am going to take some of your money, and give it to that poor kid, because it’s more important — both to the child and to society — that he eat, rather than that you have an extra week in Cabo.”
Note that we should not pretend that “a program will take your money.” Or “the government will take your money.” This is a democracy, and we are the government. I will take your money. I will. Some of that money you worked hard for and want to keep. I will give it to a kid who is hungry. If your concern is that poverty should be addressed by individuals, then there’s a simple solution: feed him. If there are no poor children needing food, I won’t have to take anything for them. If your position is that people would be more generous if only the government would stay out of it, then sorry. I’m not willing to put this child at risk to as part of your experiment. Besides, if that were true, then why were their more hungry kids before we started these programs to give them a little breakfast? If your position is that your being able to keep all your money is more important than a child being fed, then I simply think you’re wrong. And sick. You want to keep that money? You better beat me at the polls.
Such absurdity and arrogance! Not only does this devilstower idiot believe we live in a democracy (read Essay #10 of James Madison’s Federalist Papers; we live in a republic), he believes he has the right to play Robin Hood with other people’s money, using the government as his larcenous enforcer. Last I checked, there was plenty of room for people like this in China, North Korea, Cuba, and Venezuela. Good riddance. Don’t try to force Communism on me or my country, just take your sorry ass to somewhere else that failed doctrine is already in practice.
