"The left has greatly underestimated the determination of the tea party to reclaim the country. The tea party protests, to quote the president, are "illegitimate" because they stand in the way of necessary change. This great revolution, however, is nothing more than a contemptible program of income confiscation and redistribution, and despite the administration's rhetoric to the contrary, the middle class is the target of this redistribution scheme.
This is especially true of those who are approaching or in retirement. Having accumulated assets from a lifetime of work and savings, seniors are generally better off than the young and the welfare underclass who have never worked. Obama's plan, in a nutshell, is to confiscate wealth from the middle class and from affluent seniors and, in return for votes, to hand it over to those who have never worked. It is called "patronage," and it is the oldest, rawest, and most regressive form of politics ever practiced." [Jeffrey Folks]
