Text of Jim Moran, Democrat, Virginia:
Now, in the last seven years, we have had the highest corporate profit ever in American history. Highest corporate profit. We have had the highest productivity. The American worker has produced more, per person, than at any time, but it hasn't been shared. And that's the problem. Because we have been guided by a Republican administration who believes in the simplistic notion that people who have wealth are entitled to keep it and they have an antipathy towards redistributing wealth and they may be able to sustain it for a while but it doesn’t work in the long run.
For those that have argued Barack Obama and the Democrat's plans was not really a redistribution of wealth, listen closely, no amount of "spin" is going to change these words.
Corporations have had the highest profit and the American worker, per person, has had the highest productivity in our history, but it hasn't been shared?
Who is it supposed to be shared with? Those that have not worked for it?
Business 101 folks, simply put, is you produce, you make money. The more you produce, the more money you make.
The American dream.
The reason that millions of people come to America to live. The desire for a better life. The desire to work hard and be compensated for that work.
NEWS FLASH for Moran, the Democrat, when one has busted their ass to produce and obtain wealth, yes, they are entitled to keep it!! As well they should. Not to see the fruits of their labor handed to those that have not worked for it.
Anyone that believes they are entitled to monies that someone else worked for, are no better than leeches.
[Update] Cory the well driller has an open letter to Barack Obama about the Democrats "spread the wealth" aka wealth distribution plans.
