Obama supporter gets first hand experience at redistribution of wealth, doesn’t care for it.


Funny story (also true) a guy goes into a fine restaurant with some friends and orders a large and fairly expensive meal. He learns that the waiter is an Obama supporter and they talk some about the issues. The waiter claims to be all in favor of all of Obama’s ideas, including the redistribution of wealth.

When the meal is over and the check comes, he pays with credit and tells the waiter that he was planning on leaving him a $50 tip. ‘The reason’, he explains ‘that I’m telling you about the tip is because you have earned it, but you cannot have it. See, there is a homeless guy outside who needs the money more than you do. So I’m going to redistribute your wealth to him.’

The homeless guy was very thankful, the waiter was not.

Be careful for what you wish for, you might get it.
