I had to look it up online to be sure I heard right after hearing a byte from President Obama’s speech last Wednesday. Apparently, referring to the Bush tax cuts, he did actually say we’ve got to reduce the “spending in our tax code.” Huh?
Then it hit me: the reason Obama so often seems to live in some Bizzare-O World is that he thinks ALL money belongs to the government and if you have any money in your pocket it’s because the government “spent” it! To Obama a tax cut is spending! Ironically, he also calls government spending “investment”, which it obviously is NOT, since there’s no prospect of a return. But that’s life in Obama’s world.
This attitude is so foreign to me that it was practically invisible, but now much has been made clear and it is very frightening. Now it’s clear why 16,000 IRS agents have been hired since Obama took office. His concern isn’t for you and me and our welfare but his focus is to make sure that you and I aren’t taking too much money from his beloved government!
The 2012 election can’t come soon enough.
