Exactly who ‘makes enough money’ in Obama’s eyes?
“I do think,” you may have heard President Barack Obama say about a group of Americans last week, “at a certain point you’ve made enough money.”
And if you hadn’t heard it before now, you may be wondering who he was talking about.
Perhaps he was speaking to Hollywood — producer/directors such as George Lucas or Steven Spielberg, who were paid $170 million and $150 million, respectively, according to Forbes magazine’s 2009 list. Less generous, but still better than I and probably you, were Jerry Bruckheimer at $100 million and Atlanta’s Tyler Perry at $75 million. Or actors such as Harrison Ford ($65 million) or Adam Sandler ($55 million).
Then again, he might have been talking to America’s television stars. Dr. Phil (McGraw) pulled down $80 million, Forbes reports. Simon Cowell of “American Idol” was close behind at $75 million. And there’s Oprah, our highest-paid celebrity, at $275 million.
But Oprah is one of the president’s biggest backers, so let’s forget the big and little screens and turn to musicians. For all the challenges to that industry, Madonna managed to bring home $110 million. There’s Beyonce Knowles at $87 million; Bruce Springsteen, $70 million; Kenny Chesney and Dave Matthews Band, $65 million each; and a cool $60 million for the band Rascal Flatts.
I could mention athletes, but Tiger Woods was in a class of his own at $110 million (a figure he won’t match this year).
Oh, wait — maybe the operative words are “at a certain point”; Obama must have been talking about dead celebrities! It’s been half a century since Rodgers & Hammerstein put out a new musical, but their estates saw $235 million in new earnings. The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, with $90 million, and the King of Rock ’n’Roll, Elvis Presley, with $55 million, also did not do poorly posthumously.
Now, if you think it would have been odd for President Obama to scold celebrities in this way, you’re right. He was talking instead about businessmen – specifically, those who work in finance. Want to guess how many chief executives of financial companies in 2009, according to Forbes, earned as much as the 20 celebs I’ve listed here?
How about none?
In fact, the $2.4 billion in total earnings of the 100 highest-paid CEOs, regardless of industry, barely beat out the $2.1 billion of the twenty-five best-compensated celebs (living ones, that is). Just seven of those 100 CEOs worked in the financial industry.
I don’t begrudge Beyonce, Spielberg or Tiger — or the head of JP Morgan — the pay they receive. Nor do I begrudge Obama his $5.5 million in 2009 income — again, more than I and probably you.
So why does the president begrudge the same to others?
He claims that he doesn’t. The full quote from his Wednesday speech in Quincy, Ill., was:
“I want to be clear, we’re not trying to push financial reform because we begrudge success that’s fairly earned. I mean, I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money. But part of the American way is you can just keep on making it if you’re providing a good product or you’re providing a good service. We don’t want people to stop fulfilling the core responsibilities of the financial system to help grow the economy.”
The second sentence is the one that defines “fairly earned” for Obama. The man who as a candidate spoke of “spreading the wealth around” has found a matter he considers within his pay grade: other people’s pay.

It is fundamentally wrong for the President of the United States or any member of Congress to judge a person’s income as sufficient. Doesn’t matter if they are talking about money gained honestly or illegally / unethically. They have no right in their elected positions to determine how much money a person makes. Those of you who are supporting the President’s words /ideas: do you not understand how much power Obama and Democratic leaders are trying to gain for themselves? Do you really think that they will apply the same regulations to themselves and their supporters as they apply to the rest of us “little people”? The power to take over peoples’ lives and severly limit their freedoms is nothing more than tyranny. Obama may call it “fairness” and “progress,” but making people so dependent on government and limiting their right to self-determination will create slaves of us all.

Point of clarification: I am NOT excusing illegal actions leading to financial gain, and neither was Obama. Illegal actions should be prosecuted. But “make no mistake,” as the President says…some of you people make too much money, according to The Annointed One!

This wasnt how it was during the 50’s and 60’s.
hmm… let’s see now, back in the ’50s and ’60s we didn’t have sub-prime loans a.k.a. Lair Loans which began in 1993, we didn’t have The Community Reinvestment Act of 1995 to push these Lair Loans. Oh almost forgot back in the ’50s and ’60s we didn’t have NAFTA which began in 1994 or open borders with a wink n’ nod illegal immigration policy to outsource jobs in replacing American workers and drive down their wages as today, thanks to a toothless 1986 amnesty act.
Yep, it was all just those old CORPORATIONS and those old REPUBLICANS, not government that took the country from us!
Someone needs to stop watching MSDNC, reading the Daily Kos and drinking the Kool Aid before excusing themselves and their saintly government from any culpability when they take to calling others idiots, as they do tend to come off appearing rather stupid.

NMP – Just because you do not understand the lesson, does not diminish its importance. If you wish to comment on it in a critical (as in rationally countering it with fact) manner, by all means, go ahead. I suspect you are not intellectually equipped to do so, as I have NEVER seen anything from you but mindless Right-wing propaganda talking points and mindless dismissal with anything that doesn’t agree with them. Try reading it again and see if you can do better.
One out of every two dollars of wealth that exists in this country sits in the pockets of about 4000 individuals, which would constitute a bad gate at a double A sporting event. When that much wealth is concentrated, especially in the rigged market system we have operating at the moment, then corruption becomes endemic and institutionalized. That so many are willing to stand in defense of a system because they perceive that they personally can sit beneath the table and catch a few dropped crumbs dropped to them by the ultra-rich, is pathetic, especially since the game is rigged.

Of course Obama begrudges other people’s success! He’s a freaking Socialist at heart and depends on stirring up hatred of productive people among his base- the unproductive leeches among us that depend on others to pay for their services through entitlements and social programming. The silver lining in having this idiot as President is that many middle of the road folks like myself have been awakened and are going to be much more politically engaged than ever before. The country is about to make a hard turn to the right. It will be just in time. Liberalism will be dead for a generation.

Back when the world was on the gold standard, there was a limit on how much a government could inflate its currency, imports and exports had to be carefully balanced, and deficit spending impoverished the people and the government. In those days, a Bank of International Settlement existed in each major country which had on deposit a certain amount of gold from all major trading partners. The bank had little barred cells, like an old west jail house, where each coutry’s gold was stored. The balance of trade for each country pair was settled in gold each quarter by moving bars from one cell to another. When a county ran out of gold bars at the bank, they had to supply more, or stop all imports until they earned more gold. Since all governments have completely abused the power to print money, I believe we are heading back to the gold standard by necessity, not by choice. No government would willingly return to the gold standard, that would force the guv to be honest. But the sequence of financial crisis in the West is forcing a return to honesty, and the gold standard is the only way to force guvs to be honest. The Greek are known liars, thieves, and cheats, yet they were able to borrow unbelievable amounts of paper currency just because it was so easy to print. Under the gold standard, Greece would have been cut off in 1999, no new credit, and many of their foreign assets seized by creditors. The story is the same in the rest of the Western world, big lies about deficits and debt. In America, two trillion dollars has been stolen from Social Security, so far without a peep from the victims. That will not last. There is going to be a mad scramble governments to use paper currency to buy up as much gold as possible. The return to the gold standard will result in much lower living standards around the world, and governments are to blame for their wild deficit spending. Be sure to punish any and all government officials for your reduced living standard.

People who call Obama a Socialist or a Marxist have no idea what the words mean. But they sound good and scary and their heroes Rush and Sean use them so they must be right. After all, why try to have a meaningful discussion when name-calling is so much more fun and ensures that problems never get solved.
And to Michaeal H. Smith talking about the 1950’s and 1960’s, perhaps we should go back to those times, when the top marginal tax rates were between 75% and 91%. That would certainly help bring the deficit back under control.

MHS, it was you who was bringing up the 50’s and 60’s — just pointing out that things weren’t as rosy from a tax perspective as people seem to think before the age of “big gub’ment”.
The bottom line is that you can’t increase spending at the rate that is has been since 2000 while lowering tax rates and expect that combination to produce anything other than an increasing deficit. Both revenue and spending have to be addressed to fix it.

Empty Wagons, it was not me who brought up the ’50s and ’60s, get your lies straight or bother yourself to read pervious comments made by others so you might understand the meaning of things, and it is you who is using the term rosy here. But, I’ll take the rosy deficit conditions of the ’50s and ’60s any time over what it is presently or at any point since that time. Including the limited government of the ’50s.
How much has BIG GUB’MENT grown in size(of employment), scope(of power) and costs(in dollars) since Eisenhower was President?
Bottom line is you can’t spend yourself rich or borrow your way out of debt while thinking you can tax yourself into prosperity. And that I know – not think – it means less BIG SOCIALIST GUB’MENT in size, scope and costs if the economic problems we have today are ever to be addressed.
One other thing, from what political ideology was this mantra derived, which is the bases for Obumer’s “redistributive wealth” philosophy he is trying to turn into national policy: “From each according to their ability, to each according to their need.”

The sad part about the freedom of these forums is that they give equal voice to the absurd, the clown and the idiot. NMP, you are not intelligent enough to understand the basic structure of our economy, that placates you with crumbs and the promise of baubles you will never get because you are a simple tool of the Ultra-rich, there to be used and when you no longer are needed, discarded. Either get serious or get out of the way, progress in fixing our complex problems is only hindered when fools like you show us the way. In the days before these blogs, it was necessary to vent our anger on the editorial pages of newspapers, where the very act of writing a letter discouraged people like you, and when you did write, were dismissed as not being worthy enough to print due to space considerations, or the absurd nature of your positions.

The main stream media Obamabots are just full of glee with POTUS ‘hamming it up’ at a press dinner. How swell. How fraudulently swell. Meanwhile New York about got hit with a terrorist bomb, the largest oil disaster in global history is bearing down on the Gulf Coast, and incompetents in government like Chuck Schumer are cursing and grilling Goldman Sachs executives with a nasty, wretched hatred. Why can’t we just grill every single one of the incompetent Democrat wretches in Washington hell bent on destroying America’s core of free market enterprise and capitalism who themselves get away with the VERY thing they are accusing corporate America of doing? Lying, stealing, cheating, plundering, cooking the books, and spending money that’s not there. WHY NOT???
But other than that, let’s all just sit around and laugh at how the media props up this empty suit elected president who otherwise couldn’t run a 10-years old’s lemonade stand with success nor any of those other lawyer-turned-politicians running Washington.

“The sad part about the freedom of these forums is that they give equal voice to the absurd, the clown and the idiot. ”
Little Robert: we know you liberal neo-Marxist so-called “progressives.” You and your ilk of the modern left hates America. You people hate freedom and freedom of choices. You absolutely hate making money in a free market. The SEC is a government entity the last time I checked and they couldn’t stop fraud from happening in the private sector, which as I posted above, happens in government ALL THE TIME.
You people want to shut up voice of opposition. The only way in your little unused brains to do that is to label people racists, haters, nazis, and in the case of your attack on NMP, just stupid. Well I’ve got news for you, bud. We’re NOT going to shut up. We’re NOT going to go away. We’re NOT going to be intimidated by a bunch of radical left wingnut freedom and wealth creation haters.

It will be a very good day indeed when the serious people in this country are allowed to solve the problems with the real answers they have in hand without the “useful idiots” on the left and the “useless idiots” on the right getting in the way.
Government cannot be all things to all people, from the cradle to the grave. The rich alone cannot pay for unsustainable spending and borrowing. Redistributing wealth does not and cannot create wealth. Taxing heavily, innovation and investments in innovation only stifles the creativity which can and does create and distribute wealth, provided that such innovations which produces wealth is not outsourced to “foreign labor” at home or abroad in replacing “the citizenry workforce” it was meant most to benefit domestically, instead of creating a foreign trade debt by the concentrated wealth of a few, for a concentrated retention of the wealth to be held in a very few hands.
Neither Socialism or Corporatism as witnessed, has the efficacy that is presently needed.

Oh gee, I feel safer already under this incompetent administration:
“(CNN) — Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad left Sunday for the United States to take part in a conference on nuclear nonproliferation, a Foreign Ministry spokesman told state television.”
And then there are idiots like this Republican:
“(CNN) – Republican Marco Rubio called the massive oil slick headed toward the Gulf Coast “a crisis” but the Senate hopeful refused to criticize the Obama administration’s response to the oil spill.”
You’ve GOT to be kidding me. The Katrina disaster was a failure of local and state government of epic proportion (the first and second response authority, respectively) as well as the incompetence of that federal government entity known as the Army Corps. Of Engineers (they only had tens of millions and years to deal with the levees). But Democrats pinned the blame squarely on Bush (as if Bush himself was supposed to physically remove all those stubborn people who didn’t want to LEAVE). So now we have wussified Republicans like Rubio saying don’t lay blame on the Obama Administration, who is about EIGHT DAYS late to the party? Pathetic.
“NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — The recovery is picking up steam as employers boost payrolls, but economists think the government’s stimulus package and jobs bill had little to do with the rebound, according to a survey released Monday.”
Yet another FAIL from the Democrats and Obama Administration with our tax dollars.
“Two state representatives called on Gov. Pat Quinn Sunday to deploy the Illinois National Guard to safeguard Chicago’s streets. Chicago Democrats John Fritchey and LaShawn Ford said they want Quinn, Mayor Richard Daley and Chicago Police Supt. Jody Weis to allow guardsmen to patrol streets and help quell violence. Weis said he did not support the idea because the military and police operate under different rules.”
Well maybe when the Teleprompter Administration gets voted out in 2012, he can go back to his roots and straighten up Chicago as a community organizer once again.
“Police chased reporters away from the White House and closed Lafayette Park today in response to a gay rights protest in which several service members in full uniform handcuffed themselves to the White House gate to protest “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”
The most “transparent White House in history” there, huh? By the way, where was the media showing all those protests like they were over the protesters on Arizona’s new law? And to think people wonder why media outlets like Fox News and Conservative political blogs (liberals hate ‘em of course) are an informational source because GOD knows we won’t get this from PMSNBC or DNCNN or the New York Slimes.
“The New York Times Saturday made it clear that it is willing to fault the Obama administration for its response to the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Hmm. Okay, so maybe my judgement on the liberal New York Slimes was too premature. But 95 out of 100 OpEds in that rag are Republican/Right bashing and Democrat/Left ignoring, so there you have it.

No Michael! Listen to Queen Pelosi and King Obama state that “giving back” to people that the wealthy “stole” from them in a Ponzi-esque redistribution scheme of progressive taxation (as I stated about government schemes that couldn’t POSSIBLY work in the private sector). Want to work hard? Want to get out their and use the gray matter God granted you with and build a business? Well not now jack! What’s the point of wanting to do more when you will just be punished and in the case of mindless liberals like those who post here attempt to make you feel GUILTY for having more money than someone else who sat on their a-s-s? What’s the point of working harder to provide more and entertain more for you and your family if it will just get taken away? Liberals are the antithesis of American progress and freedom, as much as they very attempt to lead others to believe.

Better stock up on seafood now, the oceans are doomed, according to this info I copied from a blog somewhere: ” A reader who is an engineer of considerable experience says watch this one evolve carefully because it is destined to continue to grow and he shares this long (but worthy explanation why:
“Heard your mention of the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico this morning, and you (and most everyone else except maybe George Noory) are totally missing the boat on how big and bad of a disaster this is.
First fact, the original estimate was about 5,000 gallons of oil a day spilling into the ocean. Now they’re saying 200,000 gallons a day. That’s over a million gallons of crude oil a week!
I’m engineer with 25 years of experience. I’ve worked on some big projects with big machines. Maybe that’s why this mess is so clear to me.
First, the BP platform was drilling for what they call deep oil. They go out where the ocean is about 5,000 feet deep and drill another 30,000 feet into the crust of the earth. This it right on the edge of what human technology can do. Well, this time they hit a pocket of oil at such high pressure that it burst all of their safety valves all the way up to the drilling rig and then caused the rig to explode and sink. Take a moment to grasp the import of that. The pressure behind this oil is so high that it destroyed the maximum effort of human science to contain it.
When the rig sank it flipped over and landed on top of the drill hole some 5,000 feet under the ocean.
Now they’ve got a hole in the ocean floor, 5,000 feet down with a wrecked oil drilling rig sitting on top of is spewing 200,000 barrels of oil a day into the ocean. Take a moment and consider that, will you!
First they have to get the oil rig off the hole to get at it in order to try to cap it. Do you know the level of effort it will take to move that wrecked oil rig, sitting under 5,000 feet of water? That operation alone would take years and hundreds of millions to accomplish. Then, how do you cap that hole in the muddy ocean floor? There just is no way. No way.
The only piece of human technology that might address this is a nuclear bomb. I’m not kidding. If they put a nuke down there in the right spot it might seal up the hole. Nothing short of that will work.
If we can’t cap that hole that oil is going to destroy the oceans of the world. It only takes one quart of motor oil to make 250,000 gallons of ocean water toxic to wildlife. Are you starting to get the magnitude of this?
We’re so used to our politicians creating false crises to forward their criminal agendas that we aren’t recognizing that we’re staring straight into possibly the greatest disaster mankind will ever see. Imagine what happens if that oil keeps flowing until it destroys all life in the oceans of this planet. Who knows how big of a reservoir of oil is down there.
Not to mention that the oceans are critical to maintaining the proper oxygen level in the atmosphere for human life.
We’re humped. Unless God steps in and fixes this. No human can. You can be sure of that. “
