Who Said This??

"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs."

I bet you thought it was Barack Obama who said this, didn't you? It sounds like his platform - he wants to take from the rich and give to the poor. Well.....the above quote is from Karl Marx. Surprised? Well, you shouldn't be.

If Barack Obama and the liberal democrats in our "do nothing" Congress have their say, they will have a trillion dollars in new spending (translation....waste). They will give YOUR hard earned money to those who don't even pay taxes. Their definition of "rich" is changing by the day. First Obama said...those making over $300,000 a year; then it was $250,000, then $200,000. The last I heard was Joe Biden saying $150,000. Where will it end?

Obama has voted twice to increase the taxes on those making over $42,000 a year. So, you see, no one is safe. Don't you just love it when people like Obama want to decide who "deserves" YOUR money? This from a man who is a millionaire whose grandmother still lives in the same small apartment he was born in and an aunt who lives in a slum in Boston. As a friend of mine said, he certainly doesn't believe in sharing HIS wealth with his own family does he?

So, back to the original quote at the beginning of this post: "From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs." Sound familiar? May God have mercy on this country during the upcoming election.
