“You didn't build that” is a phrase from an election campaign speech delivered by President of the United States Barack Obama on July 13, 2012, in Roanoke, Virginia. The phrase was publicized by his political opponents, and it has been described as a meme.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Meme of the Week: ‘You Didn’t Build That’ )〕 The president's remark was made in the context of his belief that wealthy citizens should pay higher taxes to serve the public good: ==Background== In August 2011, while contemplating a run for the U.S. Senate, former White House financial reform adviser Elizabeth Warren gave a fiery defense of progressive economic theory at an event in Andover, Massachusetts. On September 21, a video of Warren making the case for progressive economics received attention on the Internet and became a viral video. In the video, Warren aggressively rebuts the argument that asking the rich to pay more taxes is "class warfare",〔Elizabeth Warren speaking in Andover, Massachusetts, on (Debt Crisis and Fair Taxation )〕 by pointing out that no one grew rich in America without depending on government services paid for by the rest of society. Warren said: Obama later echoed Warren's thoughts when he spoke in Roanoke, Virginia about how private businesses rely on government investments in infrastructure. In her victory speech on November 6, 2012, Elizabeth Warren made a callback, stating it had been "an amazing campaign, and let me be clear, I didn't build that, you built that."〔(Democrat Warren Tops Brown In Mass. Senate Race ) WBUR.org, November 6, 2012; accessed October 30, 2014.〕
