Income Redistribution

Have you seen the comments by several prominent Democrats about the real thrust behind Obamacare? VP Joe Biden, Senator Max Bascus, Howard Dean, and an economics columnist from the New York Times have all touted the fundamental provision of the recent healthcare legislation… Income Redistribution! 

Our illustrious Vice President (King of the Gaffes) stated on March 31^st: "It's a simple proposition to us: Everyone is entitled to adequate medical health care," Biden says. "If you call that a 'redistribution of income' -- well, so be it. I don't call it that. I call it just being fair -- giving the middle class taxpayers an even break that the wealthy have been getting." 

Senator Max Baucus, on March 25^th told reporters: Health reform is "an income shift," Democratic Sen. Max Baucus said on March 25. "It is a shift, a leveling, to help lower income, middle income Americans." Baucus explained "the maldistribution of income in America has gone up way too much, the wealthy are getting way, way too wealthy, and the middle income class is left behind." Baucus promised, "will have the effect of addressing that maldistribution of income in America."

Howard Dean, former governor of Vermont, 2004 Democratic Presidential candidate, and former head of the DNC said on CNN the health bill was needed to correct economic inequities: "The question is, in a democracy, what is the right balance between those at the top ... and those at the bottom?" Dean said during an appearance on CNBC. "When it gets out of whack, as it did in the 1920s, and it has now, you need to do some redistribution. This is a form of redistribution."

The New York Times, the liberal economics columnist David Leonhardt called Obamacare: "the federal government's biggest attack on economic inequality since inequality began rising more than three decades ago."

Now this really should not be a surprise to anyone who was listening and doing their own research, but many of you were blindly led like sheep, believing all the altruistic talking points about healthcare reform. Does this not disturb any of you enough to take action and vote these people out before they destroy our country?
