Elizabeth Warren: This Guy's Got a Lot of Money, Let's Take His Money

A decade ago, the descent of a Dem White House candidate into Marxist populism might have been noteworthy. At this point, it's unremarkable. The only thing notable about the desperate ploy by the tendentious socialist shew is how weak it is in a radical field.
Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, who has frequently been derided and mocked by President Donald Trump over her claims of Native American heritage, has come out firing today against the owner of the team carrying the Redskins moniker. Daniel Snyder was in the news this week for purchasing a giant super yacht for $100 Million.
This billionaire NFL owner just paid $100M for a "superyacht" with its own iMax theater. I'm pretty sure he can pay my new #UltraMillionaireTax to help the millions of yacht-less Americans struggling with student loan debt. https://t.co/Gk4ifAkxdT

Dan Snyder is a Republican donor. Specifically, a Trump donor.
Elizabeth Warren is a calculating creature and despite her posturing as an enemy of wealthy people (a group that includes her) is also careful not to alienate potential donors to her political campaign.
What does the size of Snyder's boat have to do with the debts of MA students who decide to pursue degrees in theoretical anthropology?
But that's a futile question in a country where the concept of other people's civil rights is as incomprehensible as the weak nuclear force. "Other people have stuff, let's take their stuff," is on the other hand a compelling argument for thieves and the Democrat political apparatus.
Dan Snyder has a boat. Let's take his boat.
Except that Snyder made his money honestly.
Elizabeth Warren stole from asbestos victims, from students and from just about anybody.
Nearly two years after Veo Vessels died, her daughter, 70-year-old Mary Frances Hickman, decided to sell the home her mother had left to her. A sprawling brick house in Oklahoma City’s historic Highland Park neighborhood, it was built in 1924, just a year after Mary’s birth.
Decades later, one of Vessels’ great-grandchildren fondly recalls the wood and tile floors, the fish pond, the butler’s quarters, and the multi-car garage where children played house.
“It was really, really nice,” says Hickman’s granddaughter, Andrea Martin. That’s part of the reason she’s so surprised her grandmother sold the home in 1993 for a mere $30,000. Despite a debilitating stroke, Martin says Hickman remained sharp, and she had always been business-savvy. As an Avon saleswoman, she had at times ranked among the top ten in the country. “So I don’t know why,” Martin says. “Maybe she just wanted out from underneath it, but to sell it for such a low number — I don’t know. Maybe she got bad advice, maybe she was just tired.”
The home’s new owner: Elizabeth Warren, today a Massachusetts senator who has built a political career on denouncing the sort of banking titans and financial sophisticates who make a buck off the little guy. Five months after purchasing Veo Vessels’ old home, Warren flipped the property, selling it for $115,000 more than she’d paid, according to Oklahoma County Property Assessor records.
As usual, socialists are the worst capitalists around. They have the least ethics, the fewest standards and just want to be the only ones who get to play.
