You Talkin To Me?
True.
No matter how necessary we might think that government service is, too.
Paying for anything by taxation is wealth redistribution. Government itself is wealth redistribution.
So the questions are: what do we think is needed; who pays for it; and to whom to we redistribute that wealth to take care of those services we think are necessary?
Those are always the questions we are asking ourselves in every one of these debates.
Unless you are an outright anarchist, the issue is ALWAYS: how much freedom we are willing to give up for how much benefit from that collective system we call government?
I guess I actually believe the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few,or the one! I believe this can be achieved without destroying incentive.I may be a romantic and somewhat sentimental but I also believe that the better angels of our nature will prevail when we care about each other.Give people a hand up not a hand out and require them to meet conditions on that help!
