(This was sent to me by a co-worker...)

In a local restaurant my server had on a "Obama 08" tie,
again I laughed as he had given away his political
preference--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. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to
redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless
guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.

I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to
thank the server inside as I've decided he could use 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 deserved money more.
I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to
swallow in concept than in practical application.

Happy socialism to all, and to all a good night!
