Ummm, no, not really.
We had our greatest prosperity when we had a fair distribution of the rewards of labor.
You realize that it doesn't matter what you earn if everything you earn can be taken away from you, right?
Our forefathers fight and died to secure our right to keep our property from an over intrusive government. And you want to hand it to them because you are jealous of others. How screwed up is that?
I want us to pay our bills and meet our commitments.
When taxes are cut on the wealthy, they are inevitably raised on the rest of us. Better them than us.
If given a choice between Mitt Romney buying another mansion and paying for feeding hungry kids, I think any humane person knows what the right thing to do is. Definitely what Jesus would do.
I always find it amusing that people who claim to be "Christian" would probably call Jesus a dirty stinking socialist.
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. -- Matthew 19:23-24
