An Obama Reality

.

While travelling this summer I stopped at a casino about 30 miles outside Chicago, in Jolliet, Illinois.  President B.O. spent some time as a Community Organizer not far from there.

Anyway, I'm not much of a gambler, but I do like the thought of winning 25 Hundred Dollars on a 25 cent Keno bet.  Now I've never seen anyone get the 8 of 8 needed for the 2500 big ones, but I have got 7/8 in the past which paid $1670.  Very cool!

Anyway, I sat down at a Keno machine, and within playing my first handful of quarters, I hit the big one.  2500 Dollars!  Wow, how fun was that?

So after waiting about 15 minutes for the Pit Boss to verify the win, he paid me, in cash, a total of $1025.00.  The Pit Boss, a tall light skinned Black with big ears, explained that the casino retains 25% of all winning which is put into a pool to repay those that lose their bets.  So, in theory, he said nobody loses in his place.  When asked whether the 25% taken from the winners is always enough to reimburse all losers, he said, "No, but we put the rest on credit so they can be paid."

Well now that explained about $625 of my winnings, so he then added that I was in the 34% Federal Tax bracket, so he deducted that amount ($850) as well.  He also said that 34% was to be distributed by the government for programs that support those that do not pay taxes.

I was really breathing hard and perspiring profusely when I awoke from that dream.

Reality is that I actually did go to that casino, but I didn't win anything.  And there was no fund to repay me for my losses.  But I really do have to pay 34% of everything I earn to the government, which is then redistributed to the 47% that don't.

Anyway, it was just a nightmare.  A bad dream with President Obama as a Pit Boss.  But reality is, if President B.O. and his harem, are re-elected that nightmare is ever closer becoming a reality.  You can see evidence of it in Chicago where few work, and the city is holding with the highest murder rate in America.

Fire Obama and his clan this November!
