"IT'S JUST A QUESTION OF MATH. If you don't ask the wealthy to pay their share, the money is going to come from children and the elderly."

Uh, huh. Note that the American 'middle class' is missing -- they're protected. Those remaining are either wealthy, elderly, or children. The elderly and children are victims -- hence also protected. The remaining Americans are the wealthy -- to be used by the liberal ruling class who dine on other people's money.
