"Kill the Rich, Screw the Poor" - Peter J.O'Rourke

If you never read this book by O'Rourke, I recommend it. No, Obama is not going to do that to all the rich and poor. He's going to be sure the rich that didn't support him "get subsidized" and he will subsidize the poor that voted for him. It is the middle class that will probably get screwed.
Paul Krugman writes in the New York Times on 2/18/06, that "Poverty in Early Childhood Poisons the Mind". Sorry, Paul, I and most of my classmates would have been considered poor by yesteryears standards. What poisons childrens minds are adults,mostly those living in poverty, and their leaders, especially those who still wear the "I'm a victim" over their hearts, who have low or no expectations of those born in troubled homes and poverty.
