If this speech plays out the way this article suggests I have two words for the President; FAIR (Flat) TAX!
I don’t want to get into a spitting match with the President. Also, I don’t want to go there with any of the other possible candidates to the 2012 election. As I’m sure that most of us are tired of trying to parse any of the politicians words I want to see action toward specific goals. Not band aids for broken discourse.
A proper Fair/Flat Tax would eliminate many advantages the privileged class have had during the last century. When you hear something that tries to move us American Citizens away from that goal you are listening to political gamesmanship and class warfare. We should no more accept this from any of our leaders than from any enemy of democracy. Divide and conquer is still alive and well in the rhetoric the

It’s an argument that many in the Republican party reject as class warfare, but Obama will draw on a Republican president — Theodore Roosevelt — to justify his message.
