That e is sinking 😟 <| sep |> I never understood this tact holding an inheritance over your child ' s head like that because it only works if your children feel entitled to the moneywealth you ' ve earned . A child who loves you for you and doesn ' t expect wealth in return , just acceptance , won ' t be motivated by this line of discipline . I know , I ' ve been that kid . <| sep |> That ' s little more than a conspiracy . Is Obama in his heart a Marxist ? No one knows , so you have to look at his actions and rhetoric . His actions as president including his rhetoric are liberal . He is no socialist , he is no Marxist . In any meaningful sense of the term . Your friend is most likely completely unaware of what Marxism means , and is using it as a buzzword . Obama has not expressed anything to suggest he wants workers to control production the core tenet of socialism . Obama has continued US imperialist wars and occupation over seas . The Obama administration has continued to trample the American working class Be it through economic policy , NSA spying , enabling of the police state , violations of civil liberties , etc . Obama is on the record praising capitalism . He has ZERO revolutionary rhetoric . Unfortunately for your friend , Obama is just a boring liberal . Even Bernie Sanders makes Obama look conservative .
