Mark Levin read from and commented upon an Investors Business Daily editorial ‘Like Father, Like Son’ that compares the words or the senior Barack Obama to those of his son, the junior Senator from Illinois.

More evil than individuals, Obama’s father believed, are heads of corporations. More evil still are the bankers and investors, who conspire to control the world through their evil capitalist system.

“One who has read Marx cannot fail to see that corporations are not only what Marx referred to as the advanced stage of capitalism,” he wrote. “But Marx even called it finance capitalism by which a few would control the finances of so many, and through this, have not only economic power but political power as well.”

It’s clear from Sen. Obama’s own writings and speeches that he too is no fan of business or our system of “chaotic and unforgiving capitalism,” as he wrote in “Audacity.” He’s fond of bashing Wall Street “greed” and the post-Reagan rise of individual investing over government investing. He wants to roll back the “Ownership Society.” He resents the profit motive and individuals “on the make.”

“Rather than vilify the rich,” he laments, “we hold them up as role models, and our mythology is steeped in stories of men on the make.”

This is no small point. The man who wants to be the nation’s CEO actually believes we’re living in a feudal society where the rich plunder the poor. And he thinks they should not only be vilified but punished.

“The problems of poverty and racism, the uninsured and the unemployed are rooted in the desire among those at the top of the social ladder to maintain their wealth and status whatever the cost,” he wrote. “Solving these problems will require changes in government policy.”

That is, massive taxation, among other things (or “inter alia,” as his “brilliant” father would say).

Obama wrote in “Dreams From My Father” that he was trying to impress his father by taking a low-paying job organizing and agitating in the Chicago ghetto right out of college. “I did feel that there was something to prove to my father,” he said.

Yet, suspiciously, he does not once mention his father’s communist leanings in an entire book dedicated to his memory. No doubt he wanted to keep that hidden. All he tells readers is that his father was pushed out of the Kenyatta administration. He does not explain why.
