Straight from the horse's ass mouth:

Quote:
If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.


- Barack Obama

Remarks by the Ignerant ****tard-In-Chief President at a Campaign Event in Roanoke, Virginia
July 13, 2012
http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-offi....

Quote:
... There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me -- because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t -- look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something -- there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. (Applause.)

If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.

The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together. There are some things, just like fighting fires, we don’t do on our own. I mean, imagine if everybody had their own fire service. That would be a hard way to organize fighting fires. ...


I guess he told all of youse...

I couldn't decide where to put this, but now that he's put all you business owners on notice that you didn't get where you're at because of your own initiative, I guess it affects all American businesses.

That your parents taxes paid for the teacher, that your taxes paid for the roads, that the Internet since 1990 has been a private enterprise with nodes, centres, servers and sites run for profit, is beyond his grasp.

Good, let them. Just do not force me to 'give back'.

This is getting right up to the point where it is official policy that if you used ANY gov't service or asset ever, then the gov't will lay or levy a pass-through liability claim to your income and assets via that mechanism.

IOW, it is no longer your money, your house, your business, your car, your life.

Spoken like someone who has never actually accomplished a damn thing in life other than getting elected on a promise to loot from those of us who have.

I don't suppose his remark will really affect the election much because people like myself who really have built businesses from scratch wouldn't vote for him even if he hadn't said that.

Re-electing Obama would be like backing up the Titanic and hitting the iceberg a second time.

Obamao's words directly address the 50 per cent plus who are on the take from the system in one form or another. He is saying: "It's okay to TAKE from those who are productive, because they did not get there on their own merits." It's the "they can afford it" mentality. This is NOT going to have a happy ending.

A question for those in a "pondering mood." How did we get from a largely self-directed population, organically connected through community structures (think churches and strong families, stable work environments, volunteer and charitable organizations) to a disconnected, highly-dependent, fractious mob, that is apparently ready to erupt into massive chaos the moment the SHTF?

My answer: this is no accident, but, rather, the result of careful "social engineering." Barack is the latest pitchman for those engineers. Is there anyone who didn't know this four years ago? Really, it's fundamental: either you believe in a society which begins with the individual, then the family, then communities of free association, etc., etc., or you believe in the statist model of top down, authoritarian distribution of everything (it takes a village.) In their model, YOU don't matter - only the collective hive. YOU only have identity through their approved collectivist models.

So simple...

It's not, though the intertubes are full of comments from those who say things like "Nothing that occurs at this level, happens by accident."

The fact is that those in power **** UP. They are short sighted, stupid and make mistakes.

Pick any nation or empire or dynasty, pick any century in human history for the past 13,000 years; everywhere you look, you will find that this, what is happening in the USA, has happened over and over and over and over again.

It's baked into our heads, brains, minds, psyches, brain stems, inner cortex.

A nation goes through trials, they then over throw their masters, they then become rich and innovative and successful. Then they coast, then they get complacent, then they institute 'social programs', devalue the currency, loosen social mores, devalue the role of men and fathers, undermine traditional institutions that built the society, create new versions of 'the family'.

Then the men decide to check out, society declines, the bank balances shrink, and someone comes along and takes over and takes their place.

India, Roma, China 20 times, the Mongols, Russia, Huns, Vandals, Atzecs, Mayans, British Empire, Europe, Egypt, Pharoahs, Mesopotamia -- it's never ending.

My point is that C-P, or something similar, happens and is created during these phases and that we cannot prevent it.

You are blaming this on Obama, or Cloward Piven.

History shows that regardless of who, regardless of the mechanism, that it will happen anyway.

It seems obvious to me that Obama can't fathom what it's like to be a builder of business because he's never done anything but take. Last I'd heard, the combined wealth of Congress and the Senate is over 2 billion dollars. Let's start there.

@ Ben, yes, but incomplete. Think a bit further...

(Hint: it's always the same people, what Baugh calls the "monkeys", throughout history, in all those "empires" you mentioned. Yes, WE "let" them do it (not really, but that's too complex for a forum - there is NO participatory democracy - doesn't exist - we don't have "vote"), you could say that, but dig deeper into history and you might be surprised what you find.

Heh.

Now we have reached the point, or an example of it, where _they_ are telling you exactly what the score is

They are telling you that all you have learned is a lie

But of course, some will continue to vote for him

Some will vote for the other guy - even though he believes the same thing - but has not uttered it aloud - yet, because we must stop the first guy.

Some will vote for Johnson - we will cut the budget 43%.

OK fine, its a good start right? But that still leaves a budget of ~2T. So even the head of the libertarian party thinks that an acceptable amount of spending, and implicitly an acceptable amount of theft from people in this country is - Two Trillion Dollars

Really ?

Isn't Obama just explaining the truth about how this Country was founded?

Wasn't the point the founding fathers where trying to make that everything depends on the Government, nothing exists without the government. Everything comes from the Government and it has to control every aspect of our lives.

Maybe Obama should take a lesson from George Carlin, God rest his soul...

"I don't like ass kissers, flag wavers or team players. I like people who buck the system. Individualists. I often warn people: "Somewhere along the way, someone is going to tell you, 'There is no "I" in team.' What you should tell them is, 'Maybe not. But there is an "I" in independence, individuality and integrity.'" Avoid teams at all cost. Keep your circle small. Never join a group that has a name. If they say, "We're the So-and-Sos," take a walk. And if, somehow, you must join, if it's unavoidable, such as a union or a trade association, go ahead and join. But don't participate; it will be your death. And if they tell you you're not a team player, congratulate them on being observant."
