Barack Hussein Obama, aka Everyman!, But A Mere Socialist By Day

via This Ain't Hell

The Obama knows he must be a chameleon to hide what he is to as many people as possible. By blending in amongst what he perceives as the common rabble, both in and out of congress, he garners his most support by flitting from one idea to another never really discussing any one idea in depth. Nor answering any question.

From his roots in Africa to his upbringing in Indonesia, Hawaii and the golden calf of .edu, Harvard, Obama has formed a vision of government that reflects this upbringing. It is called Marxism.

Among his proposed "investments":

"Universal," "guaranteed" health care.
"Free" college tuition.
"Universal national service" (a la Havana).
"Universal 401(k)s" (in which the government would match contributions made by "low- and moderate-income families").
"Free" job training (even for criminals).
"Wage insurance" (to supplement dislocated union workers' old income levels).
"Free" child care and "universal" preschool.
More subsidized public housing.
A fatter earned income tax credit for "working poor."
And even a Global Poverty Act that amounts to a Marshall Plan for the Third World, first and foremost Africa.
His new New Deal also guarantees a "living wage," with a $10 minimum wage indexed to inflation; and "fair trade" and "fair labor practices," with breaks for "patriot employers" who cow-tow to unions, and sticks for "nonpatriot" companies that don't.

That's just for starters -- first-term stuff.

Obama doesn't stop with socialized health care. He wants to socialize your entire human resources department -- from payrolls to pensions. His social-microengineering even extends to mandating all employers provide seven paid sick days per year to salary and hourly workers alike.

Like most 'theorists' of Marxism, Obama doesn't have much experience in getting things done, let alone completed. Like most proponents of Marxism, Obama is an organizer or has been organized, putting people's equality in neat little rows that can be categorized by neat levels of equalness. Much like 'I became a millionaire by writing about your mental poverty to show you just how unfair your economics is.' Put another way, Obama lives in his ill gotten mansion pondering the inequality of the economic masses not having equally cute little pink houses all in a row.
