Komrades,
I think O's choice of words is unfortunate yet deliberate. What has a greater impact, Wealth Redistribution OR Tax Reform with some Policy Reviews?
Nowhere kan I find a kall to deplete and socialize existing private funds. Think Bolsheviks, Red Army and White Army. That was a true Socialist reform. We are just dilletantes in the Socialist arena. BUT Unkie Sam has provided that all the profits from the banking scandals have been privatized while their expense has bekome socialized. This should have us all pissed off. What would have happened if the Gubment had injected that 850 Billion into the debts of the private sektor and paid off, let's say, the massive credit card debts gripping our nation. hmmmm....
The whole freaking system is 'out of whack'. The policies have been driven by large korporations and their lobbyists. What we have ended up with is a shame. It hinders the small guy from profting as freely as the big guy. IMO O's plan at least will refit some taxations towards the bottom half (actually 90%). Remember the mean income level in USA is 50k.
Let me Qualify, I am not for Obama, this kore ideal is not that bad though. We are just so skrewed. Wish they would all stop knocking on my door. Knuckles needs to spend some time in the front yard this time of year.
