Tax and Steal

Bill O'Reilly
Mar 23, 2013
 
So my vacation plans to Cyprus have been canceled. Something about the government there seizing everybody's wallet because the country is bankrupt. Another nanny state bites the dust. When will they ever learn?

Never.

Here in the good old USA, there are 76 members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus -- folks such as Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, New York Rep. Charles Rangel, California Rep. Maxine Waters and Florida Rep. Alan Grayson. Sanders is the only honest one in the bunch. He comes right out and admits he's a socialist. He'll take all your stuff while telling you tales of Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys.

The CPC recently released their budget vision. They want a 49 percent income tax rate for the nation's highest earners -- half of the take. They also want to eliminate most deductions for the rich, and when they die, the progressives want 65 percent of what they leave to their families.

Sound reasonable? Sure, if you're Joseph Stalin.

Of course, the CPC wants to couple their onerous taxation with even more spending. To them, Barack Obama is Jack Benny. Look him up.

Yep, despite the nearly $17 trillion debt, the progressives want an additional $2.5 trillion for "job creation." That means giving tax money to folks they like. It doesn't matter what kind of jobs are created. If you have anything to do with fighting global warming, the progressives want to send you a check.

The CPC also wants an additional $2.2 trillion to spend on science and technology, the environment, income security (that's direct welfare payments), and of course that time-tested money pit "education."

And their fellow travelers are on board with it.

Since when did O'Reilly wake up to socialism?  His show infuriates me sometimes, he's so clueless.  And his producers stink too.  Half the time they get their facts wrong.
