Obama: Taxation equals Charity
Posted October 30, 2008
This morning in a rally Obama makes a very interesting statement. In defending himself and denying that his plan is socialistic, he argues that he did not know when McCain and Palin decided that selfishness is a virtue.
Did you pick up on that? In Obama’s mind, by taxing the “rich” and giving to the “middle class” he somehow thinks he is giving charity. Those that oppose this are simply selfish!
This is getting just incredible! My family and I do all we can, when we can to help out others. We give as we have the opportunity and the ability. One of the greatest rewards in that giving is the sense of appreciation and gratitude from the person you are helping. It almost becomes addictive and makes you want to give more. That is what charity is all about. You are just as richly blessed as the one you bless.
However, in the Obama theory, the governement TAKES from those it deems has too much, the governement DECIDES who it is given to, and the recipeient feels that this is OWED to them instead of appreciating the gift. So when next month comes, they are still there with hands out waiting on what they DESERVE! And if you as an individual are against this, you are SELFISH!
This is not a defiinition of Charity that I am willing to accept. How about you? Do you feel this is Charity?
