Getting Ahead in a Socialist State

A friend of mine is voting for Obama. He knows that Obama's policies will move the country even further down the road of socialism. Here is his reasoning: "I will not have to work so hard to get ahead. More people will be lying around living off government handouts. I will only have to work half as hard as I do now to get even further ahead, because I will not have as many people competing with me!"

I think what he does not get is that the government will be taking more from him to give to those who are dependent on government!

In socialism, no one is allowed to get ahead of anyone. So we will all end up equally poor.
Sigh...I have seen and heard all this before in Venezuela, why do people not see this??????

Too bad we can't send these people to a third-would country (say France) and let them see what socialism really does. And BTW can we make that a one-way ticket?
