Moving the socialism material higher - it deserves to be closer to the beginning of the article
Obama also has documented connections with Irish terrorism. In 2007, he met with Rita O'Hare, an [[IRA]] member who, in 1971, was charged with the attempted murder of a British soldier in Belfast, and he allowed his picture to be taken with the terrorist. O'Hare, who is still wanted by the British govermnent for malicious wounding and possession of firearms, is currently the [[Sinn Féin]] Representative to the United States. The Republic of Ireland's High Court refused extradition requests by the United Kingdom, on the grounds that the offenses she was alleged to commit fall under the "political offence" exemption. She and [[Gerry Adams]], Sinn Féin president, met Obama when Adams was visiting members of congress. Tellingly, Sinn Féin, eager to ensure their friend got into the White House, did not release the photograph until the day after the election.<ref>http://www.irishnews.com/articles/540/5860/2008/11/6/602129_362559331642Obamapict.html</ref>

Obama has frequently espoused the socialist idea of "spreading the wealth" in other words raising the tax rates on business and the wealthy to a burdensome level in order to redistribute their income to low income individuals, many of whom don't currently pay taxes.

In addition, his health care plan forces employers to purchase health care or pay a fine and will force many into a poorly run single payer system. The socialization of health care will force taxpayers to pay for healthcare for those who refuse to purchase it themselves.
