Obama released his budget yesterday. Okay, I know it sounds boring, but stick with me. There is a section of the budget entitled "Inheriting a Legacy of Misplaced Priorities." Oh how The Chosen One likes that "inherited" word. For those of us who paid attention while Obama was on the campaign trail, this kind of wealth-envy rhetoric won't come as a shock to you. But now that the American Idol, Entertainment Tonight, YouTube crowd has put this man in charge .. statements like these are now included in our President's federal budget.
"While middle-class families have been playing by the rules, living up to their responsibilities as neighbors and citizens, those at the commanding heights of our economy have not. They have taken risks and piled on debts that while seemingly profitable in the short-term, have now proven to be dangerous not only for their individual firms but for the economy as a whole. With loosened oversight and weak enforcement from Washington, too many cut corners as they racked up record profits and paid themselves millions of dollars in compensation and bonuses. There's nothing wrong with making money, but there is something wrong when we allow the playing field to be tilted so far in the favor of so few."
Capitalism is evil. There's nothing wrong with making money .. as long as you don't make more than the government thinks you should make. Just why is it that Obama can never find any government role in any of this? Well .. that's simple. I've said it before ... but Obama is absolutely and completely in love with government. Clearly Obama has no need for the services of a fertility clinic .. but if that were to change they would send him into that little room at the clinic not with a girlie magazine, but with a copy of the Federal Register.
