Barack Obama in 2001 on reinterpreting the Constitution of the United States to force the redistribution of wealth:
“Ah. But the, ah, Supreme Court never ventured into issues of redistribution of wealth…. Ah, and, sort of more basic issues of politcal and, and, and, ah economic justice in this society. And ah, to that extent…the Warren Court wasn’t that radical. … [~1:30]And one of the tradegies of the civil rights movement was, um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think that there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and, and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributive change. Uh, and uh, and in some ways we still suffer from that.”
He goes on to discuss how to best redistribute money at the point of a gun.
