Wealth Redistribution as a Civil Right

everfaith

My husband received a funny email from a friend over the weekend about what the future might look like in the workplace during an Obama presidency.  It talked about the employees pooling their salaries so that the wealth will be distributed evenly, etc.  But what was a joke over the weekend looks like it could very well speak of reality if Americans don’t wake up and come out from under the spell of deception.

One of the unique features of our government is our power to not only choose between people for elected office, but to choose those who run for office in the first place. That’s where you and I wield our greatest power in a democracy. So many Americans today are weary of political shenanigans. We’re tired of the mud slinging and out of control spending. The media and the candidates have been out there for so long that we tend to tune them out. Or we get discouraged with all the problems our nation faces and throw up our hands and … Continue reading I Like Mike!
