Answer 1

His pie-in-the-sky Socialism won't work.  Barry may have been a good community organizer, but he falls far short in his understanding of economics, foreign affairs and the military.  We've seen this kind of short sighted, vote getting income re-distribution before and know that it doesn't work.

Answer 2

His plan for the middle class has never changed or wavered, his plan is to tax the middle class, along with the lower class into poverty, this will leave Obama and the elites at the top to control the populous as they see fit.  Socialism does not work, he does not get it.

Answer 3

no...i don't think so...he also said he wants the rich to pay more but...

Obama voted against requiring wealthy Medicare beneficiaries to pay a greater share of their Medicare Part D premiums...

Where's the money coming to pay for all of this? That's my biggest concern.    Raise taxes until the only people left in the country are the middle and lower class, and all corporations are long gone?
