Wanting the rich less rich

I won’t bother to see the Meryl Streep portrayal of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. It can’t be accurate or fair given the political predilections of Hollywood.

Obozo, meanwhile, with his unprecedented practice of class warfare, clearly wants the rich to be less rich—at least the ones who aren’t his cronies. But, as the real Thatcher so eloquently puts it here, that’s only a surefire prescription for making the poor poorer.

  1. Poorer, yes, but *equally* poorer. Thus creating a level playing field.

    Like that old joke: what is the difference between capitalism and communism? In the former a man exploits a man. It the latter it’s just the opposite…

  2. Hmm. Level for how long? Until the tax money runs out. Only private money can create more money. The poor and the government only consume it until it’s gone.
