Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read "Vote Obama, I need the money." I laughed. Once in the restaurant my server had on a "Obama 08" tie, again I laughed-just imagine the coincidence. When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight. I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful. At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient needed the money more. I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application. OR IS IT.........REDISTRIBUTION OF SOMEONE ELSE'S WEALTH IS A GREAT IDEA
Is America really that full of unmotivated people that need to vote for a man who believes they will never accomplish things in life? If you vote for his redistribution plan, you are saying, so what these people payed hundreds of thousands of dollars to get an education...so what these people made sacrafices to become who they are and earn what they do...lets give money to the people who didn't pass high school...
I understand some circumstances that can prevent someone from going to college...but how many people have worked and put themselves thru atleast 4 years? Btw- go thru 4 years of college and you will be affected negatively by this...
Call me an idiot, but wow, I actually have some self respect and moptivation to become the best I can, and i sure as hell know its better than what Obama thinks I can be. I don't want this for anyone who works hard enough to become somebody who earns that type of money. YES! TAX PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES, TAX THE MUSICAL AND GAMBLING BUSINESSES. Don't hurt the people with educations who took time out of thier lives and money out of thier pockets to aspire to their salary....
Fuck you OBAMA...
Ahhh, I feel much better!
