Best question ever asked to a politician came from a Plumber, not a reporter

Posted November 2023.

If candidate Obama had given a different and practical answer, we never would have heard of "Joe the Plumber."

Joe's Question, on the sidewalk, October 15, 2008. Paraphrased: "Why should people pay higher percentages of income tax just for earning at least $250,000 per year."

The better answer, producing just shoulder shrugs, would have been, "the extra money is needed to pay to restore and maintain America's infrastructure."

Instead, Obama's answer revealed that he is a socialist. Lots of words came before Obama said, "we need to spread the wealth around." This revealed that Obama is a socialist. Democrats and Lefties and Anarchists have wrongly and ridiculously HATED Joe the Plumber ever since.

The most universal law on the planet is the Law of Survival. The close second is the Law of Supply and Demand, which is a very brief definition of Capitalism.

Death to socialism.
