Chicago Middle Class Guy Rips Socialism

More H8ful class warfare cited in O-Town
In a Chicago Tribune editorial, Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky is advocating for raising taxes on higher income people. Again. She claims this is the patriotic thing to do.

Patriotism has nothing to do with taxes, paying taxes, or paying a so called fair share of taxes. Ms. Schakowsky is no patriot. She is a very loud advocate for class warfare. That is not patriotism. It is hate speech.

One of the principles of America is rewarding achievement and success. Ms. Schakowsky and her ilk believe in punishing achievement and success. They are anti-American.

Ms. Schakowsky decries the inequalities of income and wealth in America. Income equality, wealth equality, social justice equality, or any other economic or social equalities are fuzzy brained abstract concepts. They are not concrete realities.

There will always be poor people, people in the middle - who go up and down the ladder - and rich people. There is only one equal reality. We are all born human. It is what we do that determines our fate.

Income is tied in to your skills, knowledge, willingness to take on responsibility, and work ethic. Wealth is what you keep.

Wealth is not income. Income is what you earn by the sweat of your brow. Wealth is what you create through saving and investing. Socialists, like the congresswoman always equate wealth with income to generate hatred and class warfare. But she already has hers. What does she care?

Wealth and poverty are choices. Taxation is a choice. A free and equal choice.

Every single American can pay more taxes if they believe the government should have more money to spend and waste on financing more failures. Tax deductions and exemptions - those scams to redistribute wealth - are strictly voluntary. You do not have to take them. If you are a good, true, blue, believer progressive you can pay on your total gross income instead of your adjusted gross income.

You could pay on all your capital gains, and not subtract the losses. You do not have to take those deductions for charity. You do not have to take the exemptions for your family or any other deductions. If you run a business you can pay taxes on total revenue instead of just your profit. It is your free and equal choice. Stop being a hypocrite.

All you have to do is some simple arithmetic and write a big fat check to your Uncle Sam. You can sing the Star Spangled Banner. If you are a progressive billionaire, you could also just write a check to donate money to the government. You could hold a press conference and wrap your self in Old Glory. Better, you can get your progressive billionaire friends to leave the bulk of their wealth to the government when they die. That would be patriotic.

'A Champion Practitioner of Class Warfare'

America begins to fight back against socialism
Presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty sent a withering rebuke to President Obama Tuesday in a speech that trumpeted tax cuts and decreased regulation as ways to spur economic growth.

Delivering his first major policy speech since declaring his candidacy, the former Minnesota governor set an ambitious goal of sustaining five percent annual economic growth. He said he would seek through cuts to the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 15 percent while slicing the individual income tax rate and eliminating the capital gains, interest income, dividends and estate taxes.

Pawlenty also posited that any service turned up by a Google search is better handled by the private sector than by the federal government, noting that agencies like Amtrak and the U.S. Postal Service were "all built for a time in our country when the private sector did not adequately provide those products. That's no longer the case."

On the same day that a Washington Post/ABC poll shows Obama suffering from a severe deficit in voter confidence, Pawlenty had no scruples in attacking his potential general election rival.

"President Obama is a champion practitioner of class warfare," Pawlenty said. "He's spent three years dividing our nation, and fanning the flames of class envy and resentment all across the country to deflect attention from his own failures and the economic hardship they have visited on America."
