Wealth Redistribution in practice

I received this email today and just had to blog it. Here is a real world example of what Obama believes in, on a much larger scale of course by taxing the "rich".

> *Wealth Redistribution*
>
> Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read
> "Vote Obama, I need the money." I chuckled.
>
> Once in the restaurant my server had on an "Obama 08" tie, again I
> chuckled -- just imagine the coincidence.
>
> When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to
> him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept.
> I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone whom I
> deemed more in need -- the homeless guy outside. The server angrily
> stormed from my sight.
>
> I went outside, gave the homeless guy $5 and told him to thank the
> server inside as I've decided he (the homeless guy) needed the money
> more. The homeless guy was grateful.
>
> At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I
> realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn,
> but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did
> earn, even though the actual recipient needed the money more.

> I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in
