I don't quite get your logic. Obana wants to move us to a European form of government on a scale never seen before. If in the end we are to be more like Europe, how are we now more of an American Dream?
America used to be the land of opportunity, if Obama has his way, it won't be anymore.
In a Communist country like China, you are allowed to own a business, and make a very good living. If your company gets to big, the government will feel that the profits of that company now should go to the people, and will nationalize it.
That, is not the land of opportunity.
In socialism, they kind of do the same thing. They don't take the business away from you, they just tax the living shit out of it and give it to the people.
That, is not the land of opportunity.
This is what Obama wants to do. Give tax relief to the poor (and for some of the poor actually give them money), and tax the hell out the anyone who starts getting to big.
What phrase is the opposite of "land of opportunity"? That would be "spread the wealth"
