Redistribution uber alles at Texas League of the South

The current regime values redistribution of wealth above all other agendas. In the latest, the CONgress Critter Charles Rangel is proposing further taxes on small businesses along with increases in payroll taxes of working men and women. The reason? To pay for public healthcare. With the taxes already in place, the coming expiration of the Bush tax cuts and the proposed healthcare taxes, some people will have tax rates of 60%. The head of the Obama regime claimed that the middle class would not have their taxes raised, but I guess he meant that he personally would not raise taxes. He can’t help it if Charles Rangel and others raise taxes and he approves them.

What does this mean for Southrons? It means slow economic growth. It means increased unemployment, it means government healthcare for all, it means you will pay more for the energy you use. Under the present system, it is illegal for CONgress to cut any taxes. The leadership seems hell bent on making the people pay for their frivolity. The policies seek to’reconstruct’ America according to the ‘wisdom’ of central planners who think they know more about society, economies and culture than the people. Central planning was a key effort of the Soviets in transforming Russia. Both ideas, ‘central planning’ and ‘redistribution of wealth’ are straight out of communist writings. The use of central planning to control the economy was used not only in Soviet Russia, but also Afghanistan under the Taliban and Iraq under Saddam Hussein (the other Hussein regime). Such central planning of the economy is also used in such havens of freedom (sarcasm) as Cuba, Saudi Arabia, Burma, Iran and North Korea.

We do not need central planning of the economy, healthcare, or any other area. We need to be left alone. We need to be allowed to spend our money how we wish. We need to be able to hire and fire who we wish.

Liberty for Texas and the South!
