Neighborly Economics

In the continuation of Barry's much ballyhooed interview with Bill O'Reilly last night, the focus was on economics and taxation. Bill was framing Barry's tax plan as a socialist program of redistributing income from the haves to the have nots. Barry had a differing view. He describes it as follows:

"The problem is, if I am sitting pretty and you’ve got a waitress who is making minimum wage plus tips, and I can afford it and she can’t, what’s the big deal for me to say, I’m gonna pay a little bit more? That’s neighborliness."

Translation - If you work hard and make a lot of money you should feel guilty and you must give some of it to someone who doesn't deserve it. The One has spoken!
