It's time to create an Economic Growth Code whose purpose is to fix and grow the economy, not redistribute massive amounts of wealth. Ari Fleischer
Ari Fleischer quote: "A safety net for the poor indeed requires some level of income..."
A safety net for the poor indeed requires some level of income redistribution. Ari Fleischer
The guy keeps making speeches about redistribution and maybe we ought to do something to businesses that don't invest, their holding too much money. We haven't heard that kind of talk except from pure socialists. Everybody's afraid of the government and there's no need soft peddling it, it's the truth. It is the truth. Steve Wynn
Bill Weld quote: "Government has a role as well in what is referred to as..."
Government has a role as well in what is referred to as redistributive justice. Bill Weld
Barack Obama's enemies are the people who make this country work. Barack Obama's enemies are those who succeed. Those are the people whose income he wants to redistribute.
