I see 'free stuff' has been replacing 'Bush hater' as the favored chant of the NeoConfused. I fully expect we'll come full circle soon and be hearing dire warnings of 'pinko-commies' under the beds and coming out of the woodwork of Main St America

I said the same thing in 2000 about Bush. Too bad I was right. I'm thinking you're wrong though.

Yes, dear Captain, I know that taxes are used to build infrastructure and provide service. I'm saying that, in a sense, all taxes redistribute wealth because it is the government taking your money and deciding what to do with it.
you know, some people get taxed and end up with a significant chunk taken out of their income. (ahem, middle class.)
OTHER people, (ahem, the RICH) get tax breaks left and right and (though they pay a higher dollar amount) the percentage of their income that is eaten is less. Not right.

Remember the "SoreLoserman" signs of 2000? Maybe the only way Republicans can understand losing is if we invent childish signs and slogans to shove in their faces

Considering what the Republican financial policies since Ronnie Raygun have done to my retirement accounts being poor under Obama's government will be an improvment.

Since you said it, then it is so!
