Culled from the excellent Patriot Post:
'On taxes: “If I am sitting pretty, and you’ve got a waitress who is making minimum wage plus tips, and I can afford it and she can’t—what’s the big deal for me to say, ‘I’m going to pay a little bit more.’ That is neighborliness.” —Barack Obama **Because taxes are JUST LIKE tipping the poor.'
Yes, it is neighborly to say you're going to pay a little bit more.
But it is definitely not neighborly to say that the rest of the folks in the restaurant will be forced to chip in, too!
