Obama's Wealth Rose 438% Since Running for POTUS

Posted: Jan 18, 2017

According to financial disclosure reports, President Obama has an estimated net worth of $7 million dollars.

Since he was worth $1.3 million in 2007, that makes the millionaire 438% more wealthy than when he first ran for office.

Makes one wonder why he hasn't "shared the wealth". - Good old lib hypocrisy.

Trump doesn't share the wealth - even for people

[ In Reply To ..]
who do work for him; he screws them out of money and they have to take him to court to get paid.

I don't know what Neener means; is that something that Trump tweeted?

He's not a Marxist redistributionalist like Obama. - He wants to teach people HOW to

become rich.

I didn't say anything about - redistributing

I said Trump doesn't pay people who worked for him. That is really funny how he wants to "teach people how to become rich." He opens a university and rips people off.

In other posts, people are saying he is going to give everybody insurance and the government is going to pay for it, so sounds like he is a "Marxist," "socialist," and whatever other names Obama, Hillary and Sanders have been called.

Progressives and Bernie Sanders type who want "free govt stuff" like - healthcare and college tuition

including basket weaving or understanding alternate lifestyles, is thinking that only un wealthiest Americans will be paying for it or that they will remain in the country. The problem in education isn't money; it's quality. I like what Mike Rowe is advocating.

Eventually when these snowflakes get out of college and get a job, theirs as well as their children's tax rates will be extremely high to pay for all the "free govt stuff." It's like they think there's a secret stash somewhere. The only secret stash the govt has is the printing press racking up debt.

It’s the hard-working middle class that will foot the bill. That’s why Trump won. Because they’re sick and tired of being taken advantage of and of being ridiculed, too.

I keep remembering Margaret Thatcher trying to pull Britain away from socialism. My favorite comment of hers is when she said "the trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other peoples’ money" or words to that effect. Too bad entitled followers who feel they are owed everything for free can’t understand this. And the rich can vote with their feet.

As a nation we have redistributed over $1 trillion since - the 1960s, not to mention

the billions by private churches and donations to charities. Mercury One by Glenn Beck has raised millions to help people w/o any government intervention after floods, hurricanes, and even Syrian Christians.

I heard Sanders on TV yesterday claiming we are not compassionate. I guess compassion to Sanders and communists like him means government spending. Voluntary contributions are the true measure of a country’s compassion. In that light, Americans are the most compassionate people on earth.

Oh my god!!! Look at how he got his money!! - hawtmk

Looks pretty legit to me. He EARNED it from his job as president, his books and from investments. Why is Donald Trump being rich a "good thing" and shows how successful he is, but if Obama has money, it makes him suspect?

No kidding - -

I didn't know it was illegal to write books and invest. It is however illegal to rip people off that do work for you, create university scams.

I also think bringing in foreign employees and offshoring by someone who bully's others that do it is wrong.

Wow, I guess I should never think about writing a book or investing since that is apparently illegal to do.

It always fascinating to me that so many of us can look at the same issues and come up with such different conclusions. Someone mentioned redistribution of wealth and I know that many of you are concerned that your money will be taken away and given to some freeloader down the street. Here is what redistribution of wealth means to me: The Walton family has as much wealth as the bottom 40% of the U.S. population yet they pay their employees wages that are so low that the taxpaye ...
