And what Michael Moore was REFERRING to was the tax breaks for the top 2%.
Since MOST who read this right wing drivel do not actually follow the link, here is THE REST OF THE STORY and QOUTE from Michael Moore (you really DO have a
FOXOPHILED mind, DANGEROUS!)
"I think we need to go back to taxing these people at the proper rates. They need to -- we need to see these jobs as something we some, that we collectively own as Americans and you can't just steal our jobs and take them someplace else," Moore concluded.
Apparently you don't understand the concept of "logical conclusion".
Michael Moore is advocating, defined in it's broadest sense, what amounts to the government having the power to limit an individual's income and property. When the government has that kind of overt control over an individual's life, said individual is essentially a slave to the government. Failure to recognize this is what is truly "DANGEROUS!"
Notice how Moore refers to "our jobs"? As though they belong to the people collectively? The implication is that a business is started to provide jobs, which is completely WRONG. Jobs are a side effect of the initiation of a business enterprise, or of its growth. In other words, Jobs are the effect, not the cause. Moore has it wrong as do you.
Finally, the obstacle for you and your ilk is that you seem to have been convinced that such measures will only apply to the top 2%... it would only be the beginning. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need." Does that really sound good to you, basically turning everyone into a beggar?
