HOW’S THAT HOPEY-CHANGEY STUFF WORKIN’ OUT FOR YA? (CONT’D): From “Spreading The Wealth” To “Spreading The Misery.” “Faced with the stark failure of their policies to create jobs or to produce a ‘more just’ society, progressives are replacing ‘spread the wealth’ with ‘spreading the misery’ as their polar star. Thus, President Barack Obama champions a so-called ‘jobs bill’ calling for the very same policy mix that produced today’s high misery index. Targeted and temporary tax cuts and another massive increase in government spending are to be funded by permanent increases in tax rates on so-called millionaires and billionaires — those who make more than $200,000 a year. This plan puts hope over experience.”
