Obama thinks he is Robin Hood!
Most Americans are aware of the story of Robin Hood, the hero who stole from the rich and gave it to the poor. Many in Texas are aware of the ‘Robin Hood’ education funds program where the state government, essentially, took money from the rich school districts and gave it to the poor districts. The philosophy: spread the wealth around so that everyone has equal financial resources.

The philosophy: spread the wealth around so that everyone has equal financial resources.Texans know that this is a flawed philosophy and it is nothing more than the redistribution of wealth. It doesn’t make the playing fields equal, all it does is make everyone as poor as everyone else.
Barack Obama considers himself the ‘Robin Hood’ of our generation. Listen to this video about Obama’s financial tax plan:
Some call this socialism, some call it redistribution of wealth, some call it tax-and-spend policies: Obama calls it being fair. I guess for Obama it’s fair that between one-third and forty percent of Americans get free money after paying nothing in taxes! Nice sentiment, but a dangerous idea!
And by the way, the answer to your question, Mr. Plumber: YES, Obama will raise your taxes!
