Yep, that's a socialist. They have plenty of opportunities to give up a "piece of their pie" with charitable contributions. But I guess they'd rather pick OUR pockets than put their own money where their mouth is.Mike said:Michelle Obama quote:
“The truth is, most Americans don’t want much. Folks don’t want the whole pie.Most Americans feel blessed to thrive just a little bit. But that’s out of reach for them.” The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so someone else can have more.”
This is an excerpt from a good article in Obama's hometown paper. Read the whole article if you have time.
"Obama has enjoyed a robust household income throughout his political career in the Illinois Senate and the U.S. Senate. But for most of that time he has reported comparatively little by national standards in charitable contributions on his tax returns, records released by Obama show."
