A political note:
Joe "The Plumber" Wurzelbacher sounds like a jackass.
Mr Wurzelbacher said Mr Obama's plan to raise taxes to redistribute money was "kind of a socialist viewpoint".
"Robin Hood stole from greedy rich people and redistributed it to the peasants, so to speak, so if he's calling us peasants, I kind of resent that," he said."
He's worried that Obama would tax his prospective business to the tune of 39% instead of the current 36%. So, shouldn't he see himself as one of the "greedy rich people" Robin had to steal from?
