Obama’s “Science” Czar John Holdren — Pushing Ever More “Redistribution”!
John Holdren — The Obama administration’s eugenics/forced abortion/forced sterilization proponent, a.k.a. their Science Czar, is caught on video stating that a belief in American Exceptionalism is a misguided concept and that we in the US will have to give up a portion of our ability to create wealth so that the poor of the world can have their chance at getting theirs. WTF?
Ace pegs it nicely:
We won’t be producing the excess wealth in the first place, under his plan. Rather, he speaks of redistributing the capacity for wealth production, rather than the produced wealth itself.
It should be noted that never previously has the right to produce wealth been considered a “commodity” that can be regulated/restricted/taken away by the government. Not like this.
The government has long taken wealth itself through taxation, but has not considered the very ability to produce wealth something it could redistribute. Sure, there are some special exceptions — paying farmers not to farm, etc., maximum-hours laws. But it’s not been proposed, hitherto, that the government has the power to generally reduce your wealth-producing ability just for shits and giggles.
The Obama administration does NOT believe in the American Dream — but they do believe in their own version of an American Nightmare . . .
