"If [Republican strategist] Karl Rove is watching today, Karl, I want you to hear me loud and clear: I am going to provide tax cuts to ease the burdens for 31 million American families -- and lift hundreds of thousands of children out of poverty -- by raising the taxes on 0.1 percent of families -- those who make more than $1,000,000 a year. You don't have to read my lips, I'm saying it." -- Presidential candidate Wesley Clark, bragging about how he wants to seize money (using the threat of lethal force, mind you) from the rich to give to the poor.

I don't care what income bracket you are in, taking money from one person to give directly to others is stealing, plain and simple. Just because it's being done by government doesn't make it right.

Clark also plans to remove every family making less than $50,000 from the tax rolls. The grand plan of socialists like Clark is to make more than 50% of voters exempt from taxation in exchange for their votes. Once that happens, they have guaranteed political power.
