I don't think anyone thinks we should have "wealth distribution" so everything will be equal in everyone's house. I have no idea where those ideas came from except maybe from out of context phrases put together into one statement.

Sort of like the out of context phrase of Mitt Romney saying he does not care about poor people. Not what he meant at all and just taken out of context.

The poster who stated the Obama administration is a throwback to the FDR days and the LBJ days must have forgotten that those two presidents were responsible for Social Security and Medicare. Would you like to be without either?

Conservatives digging in their heels and refusing to compromise is what is wrong with our Congress. We have to progress forward - not go backwards.
