"If I'm 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 going to pay a little more?" Obama said. "That's neighborliness." Sorry Empty O but Orielly was right about this one, it's not neighborliness, it's socialism via wealth redistribution. This idea that when someone becomes successful that somehow they should give their money to the gov't so the gov't can support poor people is ridiculous. Using this approach does nothing to improve poverty in the US, it just makes people more dependent on gov't for their subsistence with no return on the investment. During LBJs great society he dramatically increased welfare and social programs which gave rise to one of the largest increases in poverty in this country since it was founded......(absent the great depression that is).
