#63 Right Far Right – He didn’t say he wants the country to fail. He said he wants to starve the socialist beast. He wants this drive towards Socialism to fail. Do not conflate Socialism with the country’s success.

Besides, his solution is the natural response to Obama’s stated campaign goal of raising taxes on the wealthy. Those making his family’s combined income would get hit hard. He’s taking Obama at his word. How can you complain? If you disincentivize wealth, then people will not seek it. It’s more work than it’s worth. This is the natural result. You can now see it in action.

Small businessmen are doing the same thing. That’s why the huge job loss numbers since Obama’s election. They continue apace. It’s not the economy. It’s people’s reaction to the Dems’ actions. But, I guess you think Eric’s actions are just unpatriotic, because paying taxes is patriotic.
