"The good news is that, according to the Obama administration, the rich will pay for everything. The bad news is that, according to the Obama administration, you're rich"

This quote is a satirical commentary on the financial policies of the Obama Administration. P.J. O'Rourke is making fun of the suggestion that the abundant will be responsible for moneying every one of the federal government's expenses, while at the same time recommending that the Obama Administration has a broad definition of what it means to be "rich." O'Rourke's factor is that while the Obama Administration may have great intents, they may not have a reasonable understanding of how to deal with the economic obstacles encountering the country. Additionally, the quote mirrors a typical critique of dynamic taxation plans, which are usually seen as unfairly penalizing the abundant for their success.
