Teaching Stupid in Pittsburgh

I generally think that getting a college education is a good thing. However, after seeing Hannity interview two women from a college in Pittsburgh last night, I've changed my mind. One of them was even a PhD candidate and yet it was obvious that they were complete morons!

The discussion was about their leftist views and their involvement in the protests of the G20. The women favored redistribution of wealth and income in the US (like The Chosen One). One of them made the moronic comment that redistributing all the income in the US would give each person $44,000 per year! If this woman hasn't been nominated for IDIOT OF THE YEAR, I'd like to nominate her now!

If this woman's redistribution plan were instituted, I wonder who she thinks would work their butt off to generate the income that would be redistributed. If you only get to keep $44,000 no matter how hard or long you work, who would bother to operate all the businesses in this country. If every lazy deadbeat were given $44,000 to sit home and drink beer all day long, who would work like a dog so that their money could be redistributed to the lazy scum?

What these morons don't understand is that socialism and communism NEVER WORK! When individuals aren't allowed to prosper from their work - THEY STOP WORKING!
