The Rich must be Killed off…

I guess that’s the goal now… Once we tax them more, some will leave, some will say thank you, some will reduce work forces and benefits, some will raise prices, some will close up shop and some won’t change a thing…The point is right now if you are making a million dollars a year you should be tightening your belt a bit until you see what’s coming. IF you are making a billion dollars a year…. well, good for you.

What I would like is for someone to stand up and say “Obama please raise my taxes”…while at the same time be able to say I payed 20% (Or any number) ABOVE my required rate to help the economy in any year from 2005 through 2010.. Some of the older IN THE MONEY crowd who supports higher taxes for the M&B’s did you add to your tax rates in the 70’s? Just one please, anyone? Hello?… yeah thought not.

I listened to some guys on Bill O’Riley the other night talking about how they support Obama’s tax the rich policy. They were doctors and a lawyer I think. The question from Bill O’Riley was “Did you add to your tax rate voluntarily?” the answer was NO, with a lot of “ums an ohs” then the bell went off in one of them and he said “But I did donate the difference in the mandatory rate and what I should pay to charity”…WOW… Now this is where I hit the roof.

Our nation was founded on the belief that NEIGHBORS would help Neighbors. And when it was deemed NOT ENOUGH we got government programs. Some of them are needed and I can totally agree with. Others are enabling laziness and sloth and I wish they were stopped NOW.

The point is this:

IF the government took LESS from these rich folks, then the RICH folks would DONATE to charities they believe in and have control over where the money was spent… HELLO!!! Ding Ding Ding…

Let me explain something that few understand unless you are as close to it as I am.

Over the last 5 years there was a program called Angel Food (There are a couple others that did the same thing) They are a low cost food distributor that was financed through churches/rich folks/businesses and they fed MILLIONS every month for very low cost. Not given away just low cost. Basically it was 35 bucks for a couple weeks of food for a family of four.

August was their last delivery, they can’t maintain the service due to cost of food and lack of charitable donations. WHY?

The rich are tightening their belts. All these “Raise my taxes” folks aren’t helping Angel Food or any other charity’s. What does that do? That puts the ownership on the GOVERNMENT which is where DEMOCRATS want it.

Okay now is it becoming clear? When the rich get taxed more CHARITY will decrease. The “Rich” man O’Riley’s show made that perfectly clear. Ask around in your area, see how much “Charitable Contributions” have dropped off since the beginning of this year. After the “Summer of Recovery”….
