Obama, Who's Totally Not a Socialist and It's Racist to Suggest He Is: Hey, Let's Give Everyone a Income from the State for Doing Nothing At All
n his first major speech since leaving office, former President Barack Obama endorsed the idea of providing a universal basic income. Speaking at the Nelson Mandela Annual Lecture in South Africa on Tuesday, Obama raised the notion of guaranteed income as a way to reduce what he called "yawning disparities" in wealth, education, and security across different socioeconomic groups. "It's not just money that a job provides," said Obama. "It provides dignity and structure and a sense of place and a sense of purpose. So we're going to have to consider new ways of thinking about these problems, like a universal income, review of our workweek, how we retrain our young people, how we make everybody an entrepreneur at some level. But we're going have to worry about economics if we want to get democracy back on track."Um, a job provides dignity because the worker knows he's doing something productive, and it provides structure because employment usually requires a start time. Paying someone for nothing at all cannot provide dignity, as the recipient of the dole understands he's not doing anything productive, and cannot provide structure, except that twice a month, maybe, he feels he should probably go over to the check-cashing place to cash his welfare check. Oh, and by the way: Soak the rich.
He additionally called on the rich to support higher taxation, saying that "you don't have to take a vow of poverty just to say 'let me help out a few of these folks.'Obama's totally not socialist, though. Neither is the Democrat Party. Ignore the actual announced socialists running as "Democrat Socialists." Claims that there are Democrats running as Socialists are Racist Unfacts which Snopes has debunked.* * As well as the Weekly Standard's Snopes-like FaceBook-friendly "fact-checker."

Seems you agree with Limbaugh that the Media, in fact, is leading the way on policy and the Democrat politicians just do their bidding by trying to enact them as laws.

I disagree that a job provides dignity. Let's face it man the majority of people wake up Monday morning and think "aww fuck". They go to work because they have to but given the chance would jump at getting money for nothing. Maybe 50 years ago there was dignity, but today....not so much.

Funny thing is that there are tons of videos on youtube of Mandela singing it.
This is the interview with the leader of Afriforum. It's very interesting. He's a real capitalist. He's also just published a book on Farm murder statistics (a separate interview on the same channel).

It's true. When people have no job and no purpose, they tend to become self-destructive to either themselves, or society. It is hard-wired into us at some level.
Welfare is a good insight into how well universal income will work. It is also another thing that hollows out the middle class and returns us to serfs and kings.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions. This universal income crap is a good example. (not that I think Obamaramma has good intentions.) I swear, I see horns and a tail growing on him.

And the entrepreneur thing is funny. I'm sure a majority of Americans won't use their UBI to look at titties and drink beer, but will actually invest instead. That's not delusional or anything.

Consider that Obama and the Dems had all three branches for 24 months. Instead of just granting blanket amnesty and instant citizenship to the 20 to maybe 20 million illegal aliens, he went for Obamacare. Had he done the former, that would've been lights out for America with all those new Democrat voters. Especially of the government paid to settle them in Texas and Florida.
But no. He just had to capture Stalingrad...

That was the left's dream for literally 100 years and he made it happen. I don't think people truly appreciate what a big deal that is. The govt now decides who lives and who dies with O-Care. That's about the most powerful weapon a govt has and Obama made it happen.

They absolutely believe we should all work - for them. We should work on what they tell us to, when they tell us to, for what compensation they determine is fair.
A fucker like me - that's got a skill they want and is quite willing to sit on his ass before he works their hours for their idea of compensation - really pisses them off.

That.
I admit to my shame to going apartheid-curious during my darker moments under Obama. But then I read up on the system. It was 'Capitalism For Brits, Socialism for Boers, Fascism for Blacks'. It polluted everybody involved in it.
We (Brits) really shouldn't have conquered the Boer and other nations in the first place. But since we did, we owned it, and we should have administered it better. We literally did a better job in India (which pooch we screwed, too).
I dunno. There are some good things about Empire and at least we weren't, um, Belgium. But a small island - actually, a small section of a small island - can't administer a fifth of a planet by itself. And mistakes are going to be made, and letting the Boers install a brutish apartheid system was a mistake.
(Rhodesia went better, but on that one I mainly blame you lot. At least the Carter-voters.)

After South Africa starts handing out a basic income for everyone, will they open their borders so that anyone in the world can come and get in on the action?
Or will they be xenophobic bigots and haters, and limit their welfare programs to just citizens of South Africa?
Someone should ask Obama about this.

Friedman's idea was to provide assistance while retaining the work motive. And also to eliminate all other forms of welfare.
Would it have worked ? I have no idea.

Mandela was always a warlord ... his wife was torturing as he was in prison. Prison was a tactic ... we were fighting the commies in S Africa, not fight for Apartheid. The day Mandela was free, he went back and sang about killing the Boers, sang with his commie cohort.
They hid that Mandela was a full commie (ANC?) but it is clear now it was commie/warlord versus a more free SA. Whites voted for Mandela ... now they know it was a BigFatLie. Genocide for whites that don't turn over their land AND their equipment ... all based on race. (whites were there before these blacks ... it is all tribal ... black tribes killed far more other blacks than Apartheid ever killed.
Obama's half brother in Kenya, on tape with Dinesh, says he wished the Brits had stayed in Kenya longer, to set up the kind of "capitalism" that SA has. But Mandela and the next regime wiped all that out ... all tribal now.

In theory ... I guess ... it would eliminate the expense of administering welfare - which I'm sure is ungodly expensive.

Well up here in Maine it's a never ending line of people who demand that I help those folks out. Every year they come back and say that that I can totally afford to pay more in taxes every year. Two years ago it was a 3% tax surcharge on "the rich" making more than $250k a year. This year, its a 7% property tax hike for a school system who needs more and more money despite teach less kids per year. Now the state wants to raise my taxes another 2% to pay for some homeless program that is doomed for failure because its basically modeled after a city's program that they love, San Francisco....
So if you'll kindly get fucked Mr. Obama. You're at the end of a line of people who demand that I pay my fucking fair fucking share - and the line never gets smaller.
So once again, get fucked.

The Department of Elections in San Francisco on Monday issued voter registration for illegal aliens to allow them to vote for members of the city's Board of Education in the Nov. 6 election.
Becoming California's first city to allow non American citizens to vote in local elections, Supervisor Norman Yee said, "We want to give immigrants the right to vote."
In order to vote, the illegal aliens must live in the city, be at least 18 years old and be the "parents, legal guardians or caregivers of children under the age of 19 who also reside in San Francisco," ABC-7 reported.

Give the GOPe a little credit, man.
After the country was sick of "W" and constant overseas engagements ... they nominated the guy that never saw a military adventure he didn't like. And after a major stock-market collapse, they nominated a fucking investment banker.

Of course, if they were smart, they wouldn't have went for ObamaCare all in one bite either.

Our main stock markets (nyse and nasdaq) are worth about 26 trillion. The gov't takes in over a trillion a year in payroll tax. They broke a trillion in 2014, and expect about 1.2 trillion this year.
Try to invest that amount for everyone's 40 year careers, and you run out of things to buy before the workers can retire and take money back out of the system.

know, to protect people from the vagaries of the stock market, 'cause
you risk losing value there. You don't risk losing value in T-bills
because you're pretty guaranteed that you'll value after inflation, so

Several months back, I saw the France24 (English-language) TV coverage of South Africa's African National Congress convention at which President Jacob Zuma (but not all his wives) was to be removed from office. It was presented as some kind of democratic fruition.
Behind the dias (on which the more equal members of the ANC were ensconced), there was a large, maybe 30 feet wide yellow banner which included words similar to "Radical Socio-economic Transformation" as one of the ANC's near-term goals.
The reporter, fortunately or unfortunately, did not find the wording so interesting as to provide an explanation of the phrase.

I offer two hour rides a day on the horses so they only have to do two hours work, the dogs don't have any real work.
I feed them, groom them, water them, keep the housed and give them medical care entirely on my charge.
I neuter the dogs to prevent over population and the horse that is not a Gelding is kept separate from Stallions.
They do as I wish I make all the decisions for them.
When they get too old and infirm I will euthanize them.
This is what the Socialist wish for us.
They wish to be the owners who run every aspect of our lives in return for being kept on a leash, saddled and ridden at their pleasure.
democrats such as Obama see us as merely animals to serve them the elite, but unlike me and my dogs and horses they don't and won't ever love us.
