Redistribute the Wealth
Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read "Vote Obama, I need the money." I laughed.
Once in the restaurant my server had on a "Obama 08" tie, again I laughed as he had given away his political preference -- just imagine the coincidence.
When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.

I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I've decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful.

At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient deserved money more.

I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application.

Also, employers could announce the consideration of employee raises, then withhold those raises and give the proceeds to a worthy cause, preferably one involving non-workers ... PRICELESS!

You are the freakin' man!!!!!

I am going to do that very same thing from now on!  That is a freakin' genius idea and I'm ticked I didn't think of it first.

Seriously though, I love it.  My applause goes to you sir.  I bet that waiter felt like he was getting

actually many "retards" tend to be quite logical when thinking.  Please use another group to name when you are making fun of obama supporters.  Oh and they are very posessive especially if they earned it... so they straight up would not understand "redistribution of wealth" as it makes no sense to them.. violence usually ensues.

A friend of mine seems to have no problem giving excessive amounts of money to the needy.  I asked him if he made 30,000 and I made 15,000, if he would give the the "excess" and make us even.  His response was..."If I am making more and someone else needs it then I have no issue with it."  While he himself is an Obama supporter, I wonder if he will sing the same tune if elected.

That story was big, big titties.

I bet that waiter thinks twice before wearing that tie while serving the public in a Republican state again.

Notice I didn't use the term "mentally handicapped" or something similar. Kind of like how "gay" doesn't always mean homosexual...

How about "completely uninformed fucking naive idiots?" Better fit?
