Yup we're in trouble:
Remarks by the President at a Campaign Event in Roanoke, Virginia
[INDENT]http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-offi...e-virginia
"There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me â because they want to give something back. They know they didnât â look, if youâve been successful, you didnât get there on your own. You didnât get there on your own. Iâm always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something â there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If youâve got a business â you didnât build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didnât get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet."
So it's the government that's made us who we are. If you read that speech keep this in mind-A political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole and tell me the President isn't a socialist.
