Joan Rivers: Don't Redistribute My Hard-Earned Cash

President Barack Obama has virtually every celebrity in his corner – including the nation’s surrogate grandmother, Betty White.

But the tireless Joan Rivers, out promoting her latest book, didn’t sign on for Obama’s soak the rich policy solutions.

Rivers, following the path blazed by fellow comic Jon Lovitz, isn’t too keen on the government taking more of her hard-earned cash.

In an interview with POLITICO, Rivers said, “I’m also being chastised because I work 18 hours a day and make a living. I feel that I’m part of the 2 percent and I’m really not interested in a woman who has 95 children and has 95 husbands. I think the Chinese have it right: You each have one children, two children and you take care of them.”

Rivers agreed with the notion that the president’s policies were unfairly harsh to the rich, saying, “I think if I work very hard, I should be able to gather the fruits of my labor. And I think if you’re not about to work, you should get minimal and leave me alone. I think if you don’t wear a helmet and you fall off your bike, you pay for the doctor.”
