I agree, and especially like what's bolded. I wish people would just stop with all the beating around the bush and say what's really on their minds. This passive aggressive crap is for the birds, especially when everybody knows what's really being said, anyway.

Also, If you only have a little bit of wealth (ie: less than 250,000 dollars of it) then your wealth is safe. It won't be spread to lazy people. Also, where are you getting this idea that wealth will be spread to lazy people? Even if wealth were to be spread it would be spread to hardworking middle class Americans not to lazy people who do nothing. A tax break doesn't help the unemployed "lazy people on welfare"(people without jobs don't pay income tax).

Why is it that some people can't say what they mean?
What you say is "Obama's gonna redistribute my wealth"
what you mean is "I'm scared that the new black president will only help black people especially because we've had white presidents who only helped white people"


Don't worry though, President Obama and the people in the United States Congress will not pass race-specific tax laws.
