Redistribution of wealth.
Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read 'I need the money.'
Once in the restaurant my server had on a 'Obama 08' tie.
When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.
I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful.
At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient was more in need of the money.
I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application
Sincerely,
Joe Tax Payer.

In Obama's world, the homeless guy just got a tax cut.
Now he can go hire somebody, and create a job.

If they were stupid enough to wear an obama tie, (they make such crap?) and advertise their politics to their patrons, then they dont deserve a tip. Good for you!

I believe that was originally an excerpt from an opinion piece. The rest of the piece had similar impact.
