Obama: Rich People Aren’t Evil, They Just Have Too Much Money [+videos]

In remarks that drew critical broadsides from conservative radio champion Mark Levin and others on the right, Obama, in addition to attacking Fox News, said rich people aren’t “evil” per se they just have too much money.

“I’m not saying this because I dislike hedge fund managers or think they are evil,” Obama said “You pretty much have more than you’ll ever use and your family will ever use.”

Showing that he doesn’t understand most rich people work hard for their money, the president compared them to gamblers hitting a jackpot. . .

“Part of what happened in our politics and part of what has shifted — elites in a very mobile globalized world are able to live together away from folks who are not as wealthy,” he said. “What used to be racial segregation mirrors itself in class segregation.”

“We’re not, we’re not trying to push financial reform because we begrudge success that’s fairly earned. I mean, I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money,” he said at the time. (Read more from “Obama: Rich People Aren’t Evil, They Just Have Too Much Money” HERE)
