See, America, there's never enough to quench statism's insatiable appetite...
BeltwayConfidential: President Obama cut a video, distributed by his reelection, to reiterate his belief that the wealthiest Americans still aren’t paying their “fair share” of taxes and to outline a second-term agenda ranging from environmental policy to gun control.
Obama started by celebrating the tax increases — “making our tax code more progressive than it’s been in decades,” he said — that will take place because of the fiscal cliff deal.
“Obviously, there is still more to do when it comes to reducing our debt,” Obama said in the video. “And I’m willing to do more, as long as we do it in a balanced way that doesn’t put all the burden on seniors or students or middle class families, but also asks the wealthiest Americans to contribute and pay their fair share.”
Obama, who is vacationing in Hawaii, cut the video for his campaign list.
Notice this was made by his reelection campaign. Didn't he win that already? Hmm...
As Rush said this morning, the 'asset wealthy' (Buffett, Immelt, Hollywood, the political elite, etc.) haven't been touched, unlike the 'income wealthy' (or the working wealthy) whose beyond fair share that is already supporting the vast majority of tax revenues has now been increased...and evidently will continue to be confiscated under this president.
I can see a bourgeoisie and proletariat from my house.
