 Rich Man Talking
When Forbes sought his party's nomination in 1996 and again in 2000, his campaign mantra was "flat tax." His flat tax proposal amounted to a kind of Robin Hood in reverse concept: Lower the taxes for the rich and increase them for the poor.
Forbes is in the forefront of the turn-back-the-clock movement.
Railing on, Forbes writes: "Dangerously, they [the Left] have convinced many Americans that right and wrong are relative." Apparently he has never heard of justifiable homicide, involuntary manslaughter, manslaughter, and murder in three or four degrees, including "capital murder." A lot of relativity there, and none of it new or part of a liberal plot.
