"There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me -- because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t -- look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something -- there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. (Applause.)
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet."

It's laughable the stupidity coming from Obama's mouth. He's suppose to be the smartest man in America? A first-year Junior Achievement member knows more about building and running a business than this idiot occupying our White House. The sad thing is that he's talking to his base of supporters and they all agree with everything he says without question.
How do you fix stupid?
Impeach Justice John Roberts!

Obama didn't get to where he is without a lot of help. He is speaking from personal knowledge because that is all he knows. He doesn't understand that people do work hard on their own and take risks to be a success without help from others. Obama was never able to achieve that kind of unsupported success.

No, it's not really different in context. I read the whole speech. His statement, "You didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen."
That's just atrocious. It's a lame attempt to appeal to poor, "gimme gimme" people. It's reinforcing his platform that the rich are stealing from the poor, that they don't deserve to keep their money, that it's not hard-earned, etc.
Lame as ****.
And the part that successful people attribute it to smarts or hard work. lawl. Some people just don't have what it takes to start and run their own business. They have an awful idea, awful execution, poor work ethic, or any number of issues. But what Obama is saying is that they're not smarter than you or more hard-working, they're just corrupt people thieving the community.Last edited by sgdp; July 16th, 2012 at 7:56 am.

No-one "creates" anything in a vacuum, particularly a business. But it's more fun to go with the out of context quote.
Lots of people are smart and work hard and have good idea's, that doesn't mean that that's all it takes to create a business successfully.
Similarly there are plenty enough stupid or lazy people who are successful. This isn't an either or proposition.Last edited by MoleUK; July 16th, 2012 at 8:30 am.

And the kicker? The tax isn't even based on the value of the land/property. :hand:
Is taxation a form of theft?
