Obama Tells Students Evil Rich People Should Pay For Their Education…

Nope, definitely not pushing class warfare.

Via Daily Caller:

President Barack Obama Friday told an enthusiastic crowd of students at the University of Michigan that extra taxes on millionaires should help subsidize their futures.

Without mentioning Gov. Mitt Romney by name, Obama used his campaign-style event to urge higher taxes on the nation’s most prosperous to reduce student loan-payments, increase student grants, fund universities and pay for high-tech research.

“You’re the ones who need help,” the president told students gathered at the University of Michigan’s Al Glick Field House.

“A quarter of all millionaire [earners] pay lower taxes than millions of middle-class households… [audience boos] Is that fair? … does it make sense to you? … do we want to invest in things like… student loans and grants?”

    Again, if you think millionaires shouldn’t pay a lower rate than the rest of us, LOWER OUR RATES DOWN TO THEIRS.

    Despicable… barry lies with impunity.

    What these kids should be learning is that most college degrees are a complete waste of time and money AND barry is making darn sure that all young people will live in a nation with limited opportunity and almost certain tyranny and oppression.

    We would not need Evil Rich People tax increase if all the unions were fired and teaching school goes back to part time as it always was..

    What a vile divisive SOB he is, are these kids that dumb? do they want to be taxed to death should they ever get a reasonable job? What a total hypocrit indoctrinating youth in the art of class hate. America had better get rid of this freak or the streets will run with blood.

    how can he get away with saying stuff like that?

    he deliberately is being misleading suggesting that 25% of millionaires pay lower taxes.

    how on earth could the top 1% pay 38% of fed income tax if millions of middle class households pay higher taxes then millionaires?

    he should have said higher tax rates, but AP has corrected him on that showing that the average 1%er pays the highest rates of all brackets.

    even romney has a higher effective rate then 97% of the tax payers.

    we have to confront this occupier 99% vs 1% class warfare nonsense.

    letting a politician, the president no less, tell kids that the rich should be paying for their education is disgusting.

    Georgia Ballot Challenge: Obama Walks On By
    By Cindy Simpson and Alan P. Halbert

    Two AT writers attended yesterday’s hearing in Georgia over President Obama’s eligibility for the presidential ballot. Cindy Simpson writes:

    President Obama has a habit of turning his back and walking away from those with whom he disagrees, as recently discovered by Arizona Governor Jan Brewer. Professor John Lott, in an interview with Teri O’Brien, recalled similar experiences with Obama while at the University of Chicago.

    Below is a summary list of the physical evidence introduced in yesterday’s hearing in GA.

    P2. Affidavit of Senior Deportation Officer with the Department of Homeland Security John Sampson, showing that Obama is using Connecticut SSN 042-68-4425

    p3. Affidavit of Adobe Illustrator expert Felicito Papa, showing Obama’s alleged true and correct copy of his birth certificate to be a computer generated forgery

    P4. Affidavit of witness Linda Jordan, attesting to the fact, that SSN 042-68-4425, used by Obama, does not pass E-Verify

    p6. Selective service certificate showing Obama using SSN 042-68-4425 and official printout from Social Security Number Verification Services, showing that 042-68-4425 was never issued to Barack Obama, attached e-mail from Colonel Gregory Hollister

    p7. Affidavit of Adobe Illustrator expert Felicito Papa, showing that Obama is using CT SSN 042-68-4425 on his 2009 tax returns

    p9. Hawaiian birth certificate 61-00637 of Susan Nordyke, born a few hours after Obama in Kapiolani Hospital, looks completely different from alleged copy of birth certificate of Obama

    p10. Passport records of Stanley Ann Dunham Obama, mother of Barack Obama, showing Obama listed in her passport under the name Barack Obama Soebarkah, attached affidavit by Chris Strunk, recipient of Obama’s passport records under FOIA

    p11. Barack Obama’s Indonesian school registration card #203, date accepted January 1, 1968, released by the Associated Press in Indonesia, showing him using last name Soetoro and listing citizenship -Indonesia….

    Amicus Brief. Mr. Leo Donofrio, Esq.

    fomenting street violence in order to distract gullible fools from focusing on the abject failure of his administration- question, are we talking about Chavez, all the former Soviet premiers, or Soetero?

    Hah! Trick question- we’re talking about all of them.

    Advocating for anarchy from the bully pulpit of the presidency. That’s-

    winning the future, the soetero way!

    At the rate this jackass is selling America down the drain with his Occupy movement, every American with a job is going to be in the “should pay” category.

    Bottom line: Envy is NOT an American Value.

    Then there needs to be a program set up so that students can “adopt” a rich Liberal and have that rich Liberal pay for the students’ tuition. I’m sure all rich Liberals are more than eager to participate in the program.

    Did we ever find out how Obama paid for his education? Harvard and Columbia are not cheap, and we do know he has never had a job.

    “The rich” already endow scholarship funds and put kids through college.

    Of course, their help is usually based on merit, not on affirmative action.

    So the truth is out, the Democrat Party is nothing more than an offshoot of the Communist Party USA. The “useful idiots” have elected the first communist president in the history of this nation, and it is our duty to remove this blight from our country.

    Lets see. The Pell Grants and Fed. loans caused the price of a college education to skyrocket, with instructors regularly earning over a $150K a year and the teaching load reduced to a miniscule class on Japanese comic books or the like.. So pouring more federal money will …………?

    I went to a small 2 yr. college where most of the students got in on grants. I started with over 100 in my class, by the second term half had dropped out, by the time I graduated there were about a dozen of us left.

    Most of those people shouldn’t have even bothered. They figured passing the classes would be as easy as the financing… handed to them on a platter, when they found out they had to actually learn something they didn’t stick around long. Figure each of them wasted around 5000 taxpayer dollars, and every couple of months a new bunch started the process over again.

    Obama is the most vile piece of shit on the planet. Maybe this piece of maggot shit should sell his Hawaiian mansion, how many scholarships would that pay for? Maybe that bitch Mooch can wear potatoe sacks instead of designer dresses, how many educations would that buy?
