PTBC J-Log

A conservative OPINION blog --with bite. OPINION by Joel Johannesen.

Monday, April 07, 2008

Barack Obama’s father advocated “100% taxation” for Americans. Sounds communist to me.

From our friends at Little Green Footballs:

Did Obama Hide His Father’s Communist Ideology?

Mon, Apr 7, 2008 at 9:14:32 am PST

Barack Obama has written in his autobiography that he organized his life around the ideals imparted by his Kenyan father, Barak H. Obama, a Harvard-trained economist. So what were those ideals?

PrestoPundit has found a 1965 paper written by Obama’s father, in which he advocates:

100% taxation

— communal farms / the elimination of private farming

— the nationalization of businesses owned by “Europeans” and “Asians”.

— “active” measures to bring about a classless society

PrestoPundit is calling it the “Rosebud” of the Obama campaign: Barack Obama hid his father’s socialist and anti-Western convictions from his readers.

    Did he also advocate building an iron curtain around the country to force the productive members of society to stay and support everyone else?  I would think that necessary in order to achieve his “ideal” society?

    100% taxation?  How to take away the incentive for anyone to be “gainfully employed”.

    The fellow reminds me very much of Pierre Elliot Trudeau.
