[And now it’s time for Mr. Obama to start paying for all those votes by reaching deep into our pockets.

The election was all about new math: 47 = 51. The foresight and genius of the Founders knew no bounds. Ben Franklin said, “Once the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.” The trumpets have sounded.

The takers have voted to take control over the producers.
