    I'm not getting the OP. Is this another pathetic attempt on the Left to make a virtue out of stealing other people's money?

    "False Austerity?" Yea it's safe to say Socialists/Progressives really have lost it. What a bunch of funny nutters. Yup,just keep printing the phony Money and raising the Credit Card Limits. Yea that'll work. Socialists/Progressives are now officially in denial.

    Too late. The rich are fearful and can't give up. They will fight you, unfortunately literally.

    Why do you think that the police have been militarized to create an almost seamless organization running from the White house through the Pentagon down to your local sheriffs office?

    Don't you understand what Fusion centres and SWAT teams are for?

    I agree. I wish the police here would realize that they have more in common with the workers than with the elites. What happened in Toronto last year at the G20 is just a sign of how bad things are. In Poland, the police and firefighters actually demonstrated with the workers. Those guys understand.

    The Obama should be Impeached. He is 'Rich' no? Man,the Hopey Changey Sheep are just so lost. Class Warfare only works with Dummies. Looks like it's working very well with this OP. "False Austerity?" That's just plain hilarious. :)

    Why should he be impeeched for being rich. There is nothing wrong with being rich. This guy just says that he can afford to pay more taxes. So have a lot of other business leaders. Of course you dont' want to listen to socialist like Warren Buffett or George Sorros, so I don't blame you for that. This guy isn't superwealthy, but he believes he can afford to pay more in taxes.
