Why do the democrats want to tax the rich and redistribute their wealth?

Question

What's that called again?

Answer 1

envy...

Answer 2

I call it rewarding underachievement in a nutshell.  I know there are a lot of people who need help because they can't do anything about the situation they're in but there are 10 times as many that are riding the coattails of the welfare system because they're lazy and want things given to them.  Our welfare system is out of control and is ruining a lot of people in this country.  If I was mega rich, I'd retire and produce as little income as possible.

Answer 3

Most of the things all of you have said are correct.  It is communism.  It is laziness.  It's class warfare.  But the question is WHY do they want to do this.  The reason is simple.  Votes!!  The middle class is much larger than the upper class.  They use this technique to appeal to the masses that don't understand the effect that redistribution of wealth has on an economy.  And in a time when the economy is suffering, it's very appealing to those who don't know any better to hear that other, more fortunate people need to pay more and they need to pay less.

Answer 4

It is called redistribution of wealth.

That is what the dems believe, we are all equal even if they have to make us equal. So they will take our money (taxes) and give us all a weekly allowance. That way we will all be happy, even the people that have NO intention of working.

Answer 5

Socialists.

Answer 6

The Democratic Party Platform?

Answer 7

The answer has been in front of us for a long time (since 1963)  It's called Big Brother is coming.  Democrats = Unionization = Socialism

It is time to look again at some of the communist goals:

Capture one or both of the political parties in the US. (which party do you think they infiltrated?)

Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights. (ACLU)

Infiltrate the press and gain control of key positions in radio, TV and motion pictures.  (ALL UNIONS)

Gain controll of all student newspapers.

Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks. (TEACHERS & PROFESSORS UNIONS) -(Mold the children's mind while they are young, and they are yours)

 

Use student riots too foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.-- (Democratic party)

(Hollywood, The Media, School Teachers & Professors, Transportation, Writers (books, textbooks, newspapers, political magazines,etc), - ALL UNIONS

Recording Artists,Radio Broadcasters - UNIONS

T.V. Hosts - Letterman, Leno, Jon Stewart - UNION

Animators & Cartoonists - UNION

Screenwriters, scripts, playwrights for stage & screen - UNION

(the content of EVERYTHING  you see on stage & screen and hear on radio and TV has UNION bias).

Infiltrate and gain control of big business (mortgage lending, loan sharking, banking, etc.)

Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."

Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state." (ACLU)

Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one world government, with its own independent armed forces.(The UN is useless and 1/2 of the U.N. delegation call terrorists "freedom fighters")

Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press. (ACLU)

 

Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV. (UNIONS)

Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy." -

Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office

Answer 8

Socialism Or if the right circumstances are involved, WELFARE!!!!!!

Answer 9

Because the rich can afford it more than the average American?

Answer 10

Have you read Obama's plan? Or are you just going by McCains attack ads and your own reluctance to vote for him?

It's good to know what you're talking about.

Answer 11

socialism, wealth envy, laziness

Answer 12

Robbery

Only some of the rich.  Most Demo's in Congress including Obama are well off.  I don't see them walking down the street passing out dollars.  ANd why should someone who worked hard be forced to give away what they earned.  Again it is robbery

Answer 13

That would be called socialism.
