I have no problem with this speech by President Obama in his early days.



Redistribution of government monies works. A favorite GOP redistribution of monies are Farm Subsidies. So, to way redistribution is a BAD thing is completely taking it out of context.

This is going to sound like a broken record from this website, but, it is true. Women are prime examples of the success of redistribution of government monies. Women have been able to start small businesses, employ people, MAKE MONEY, become millionaires and PAY TAXES all because their beginnings were to do redistribution of government monies.

If destroying redistribution of government monies is a goal for the Romney campaign then he is more and more defining himself and any administration he would enact as a Plutocrat catering to the wealthy. 

Why tax the wealthy if government isn't going to redistribution monies? Of course, government monies are redistributed. It pays the National Debt, pays the military and enhances business opportunity through redistribution of monies. The entire idea this is a communist plot by anyone is completely silly.

The government DOES distribute monies. That is what it does, ask the GOP under Bush, they'll tell you all about it. "Six Flags Over Lincoln" didn't happen because government did not redistribute monies. Oh, wait. Hm. "Six Flags Over Lincoln." That is Wall Street. I'll be darn.


The idea Romney has discovered a 'secret agenda' by President Obama from 14 years ago is about as creative as Karl Rove lying to the grand jury in regard to Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson. Karl returned to correct his TESTIMONY at least six times.

The United States of America redistributes money, the Recovery and Redistribution Act was redistribution of money. Those monies prevented an economic disaster in the USA. It reignited programs to repair neglected infrastructure and seek opportunity for energy sources. Every state in the union received monies from the Recovery Act. Their citizens benefited form the tax credits and their unemployed received extensions. 

President Obama has been correct about the ability of government to return function to impoverished areas. He was correct 14 years ago and he is correct today. His work needs to go forward.
