Phuck The Plebes
The oxymoronic and snarky ruminations of a conservative American expat living in the eternally "lit" liberal bastion that is Paris!
" 'Economic justice' simply means punishing the successful and redistributing their wealth by government fiat. It's a euphemism for socialism."
Such as:
• "Universal," "guaranteed" health care.
• "Free" college tuition.
• "Universal national service" (a la Havana).
• "Universal 401(k)s" (in which the government would match contributions made by "low- and moderate-income families").
• "Free" job training (even for criminals).
• "Wage insurance" (to supplement dislocated union workers' old income levels).
• "Free" child care and "universal" preschool.
• More subsidized public housing.
• A fatter earned income tax credit for "working poor."
• And even a Global Poverty Act that amounts to a Marshall Plan for the Third World, first and foremost Africa.
