“…which is, of course, defined as giving all your money to the ruling class. wink, wink. nudge, nudge. see what i mean? say no more!”
“Work for the Motherland!”

Unfortunately, Obama gets economic patriotism confused with the pillage of allegiance.
So, can we assume that people who don’t work aren’t very economically patriotic? YES WE CAN!

Work makes you free.
Work for the state for free.
Freedom is slavery.
Etc.
Why do people who clearly hate this country insist on telling us what patriotism is?
