That's why I posted it. I saw the irony. 
Well, if they continue jobless, maybe they can see some of that money come in from the rich.

Those people worked for 0bama and should be paid for their work. They rightfully earned it. The irony is that they are getting a lesson of 0bamanomics for helping him win.

I was listening to someone talk about taxes and they read a part of a sermon from R.C Sproul which I completly agree with. If you vote to raise someone elses taxes so that you can have a tax cut you are both coveting and stealing. I agree with the statement 100%. I have always believed that the only fair taxs is a flat taxs (or a sales taxs since then you only pay when you buy something). People like to birng up the OT about helping the poor but I would point out 2 things. One the tithe was the same for everyone whether rich or poor you still had to bring 10%. Yes I know they had a bunch of different tithes so it was more like 23% for the whole year but that is 23% for everyone. Second if you remember from the story of Ruth the way Poor people got food was by gleaning. God's command to was the field owners not cut the corners or go back and pick up what they missed that was for the poor, so the poor had food, but you know what, they still had to work for it.
I think what people forget is that while they are looking at the people above them for some of their money there are people below you look for some of your money. The only thing that will result from 'spreading the wealth' is that we will just spread poverty. I will be praying now that the buisness I work for survives the next couple of years while I finish school but it is a small business that will be hurt.
