Topic: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

Liberals are quick to want other peoples money... so as he is worth 11.8 million US Dollars does he have to much money? Is his amount just right?

Everything bad in the economy is now Obama's fault. Every job lost, all the debt, all the lost retirement funds. All Obama. Are you happy now? We all get to blame Obama!
Kemp currently not being responded to until he makes CONCISE posts.
Avogardo and Noir ignored by me for life so people know why I do not respond to them. (Informational)

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

super rich dont pay taxes.  they invest in failing companies, take the capital losses and offset it against income.  the first two options dont help (minus off with the head if that is a literal request).  i would suggest tar and feathering for the second worst president of all time.

So I told the cop, "No YOU'RE driving under the influence... of being a JERK!"

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

$11.8 million doesn't concern me a whole lot. Of course, I doubt he earned most of his money honestly, given that he is a big rent-seeking politician.

But, $11.8 million in assets is well within the range of what could be earned honestly. What's unlikely to be earned honestly is a billion dollars.  I will guess that at least 95% of billionaires are crooks who "earned" their money from anti-competitive privileges, no doubt given to them from collusion with the government.

Not that I want a billionaire beheaded.. But I would like to see every billionaire guilty of profiting from anti-competitive privileges (not including patents) to be imprisoned for life, and their wealth appropriated. However, I would be willing to allow their close relatives who are innocent of any wrong doing to keep up to $5 million.

So I favor imprisoning Barack and Michelle Obama for life, if a large portion of their money was earned dishonestly, but I would let each of their kids have $5 million, leaving $1.8 million to be appropriated.

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

Einstein,

Stop equating wealth acquisition by systemic fraud as having been 'earned'; realize it is the enablers of the system (be they left-wing or right-wing it doesn't matter) which enable systemic robbery of ALL those who ACTUALLY 'earn' a buck (rich and poor), and thus, because the system itself is fraudulent, it doesn't matter if there is a right-wing or left-wing government running such an inherently fraudulent system.

To Xeno, free markets are rigged systems because they're not Godly perfect like communism.

War is peace!

Freedom is slavery!



To Einstein, Obama's [known] income actually matters, because the big picture is over his head.



Both are highlights of the mob and Rome's collapse.

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

Again there is Kemp accusing me of being a communist to silence me, a violation of free speech, online bullying, personal, psychological harassment at its most blatant.  How is it that you aren't in prison, yet Kemp?

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

It is this sort of lack of / selective enforcement of the law which has effectually undermined the rule of law in democratic countries, and enabled tyrannical ideologues to entrench systemic tyranny and systemic fraud into the 'system'.  It has reached such an extent that the vast majority has taken to consider such systemic tyranny and systemic fraud as normal or somehow a necessary evil, to the extent that liberal democracy is becoming illegitimate worldwide. This state of affairs has resulted due to enablers of tyranny and fraud: those whose interests are served by tyranny and fraud.  And out of such people's maliciousness and / or sheer stupidity, legitimized now is the systemic tyranny and systemic fraud, and, in general, moral and cognitive bankruptcy itself. 

The result: the sort of tyranny and fraud about which the enablers of it (people like Kemp) are now ironically starting to complain.

lol

An example of true devotion to free speech and the absence of harassment

Hate speech, bullying, psychological and personal harassment are illegal.  And so is fraud.  And yet, infractions against these are hardly ever prosecuted. 

Neither is sedition prosecuted, apparently, if Einstein isn't locked up atm.  For Einstein is clearly guilty of sedition by publicly calling for the beheading of a democratically elected president.

The selective / non-enforcement of the rule of law in contemporary society has undermined the legitimacy of liberal democratic civilization. 

What is happening is treasonous.

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

If someone disagrees with your redefinition of words, clearly they're trying to silence you and violate your rights! It's bullying! It's harassment! It's hate speech!

Libertarians have had a big problem with all kinds of corruption and tyranny for a long time.

Vaguely rant more. It's very insightful.

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

can you imagine if a former president had to go work at a bank or live in a 1 room house after thier term? america would look like even more of a joke.

Re: Does Barack Obama have to much money?

apparently Japan will pay $3 million to hear a US president tell them how awesome it is to be a US president
