McCain Says The IRS Will Be Turned Into A "Giant Welfare System"!!!
This video shows the classism that is going on right now. Watch Terry Jeffrey call medicare & social security representations of socialism. I am astounded by this because I'm just now seeing it. But, it plays into all of the socialist rhetoric that is being trumpeted by republicans.It is of the highest importance that I continue to blog about these issues.This really is a culture war & all blacks, whites, asians, arabs, latinos,etc... beter recognize that fact. I am stupefied that the worst kind of politics is at play here. In using the word "welfare", John McCain is speaking to those who believe that most blacks are on welfare.That particular remark is being used to stoke not only racism. This is classism as well! McCain said today that "Joe The Plumber" stands for us all. I don't know how a middle-aged balding white man could possibly represent me. If you don't own a small business, John McCain is not talking to you! He seems to despise anything that will help the poor. When it comes to healthcare, he wants to cut Medicare by 20%. Will that really help the elderly in this society? What happened to "love thy neighbor"? I guess when we offer assistance to those that need it in America then we are just practicing "socialism". John McCain's outrage that Obama wants to "spread the wealth" speaks volumes to me. This is a man who is fighting for the wealthy not the poor. Read what he said in his radio address here:(http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/18/raw-data-john-mccains-weekly-radio-address/)
I have taken an excerpt from his speech:
"Well, that's the key to Barack Obama's whole plan: Since you can't reduce taxes on those who pay zero, the government will write them all checks called a tax credit. And the Treasury will cover those checks by taxing other people, including a lot of folks just like Joe.
In other words, Barack Obama's tax plan would convert the IRS into a giant welfare agency, redistributing massive amounts of wealth at the direction of politicians in Washington. I suppose when you've voted against lowering taxes 94 times, as Senator Obama has done, a new definition of the term "tax credit" comes in handy."(end quote)
