why is it greed to keep the money you have earned but not greed to take someone else's money

[basquebromance]

please explain, liberals!

Liberals think it's their money in the first place. That's how fucked up their thinking is.

Thieves never think they're greedy. Your momey belongs to them.

If referring to taxation, for some one aspect of living in a Christian nation is belief that all things, both living life and material things, belong to God and nobody is more deserving of those things than any other person.

We all know that's bullshit. The Pilgrims tried to live by that rule, and they gave it up because they were starving to death.

We can thank God for everything we have and have confidence that he gave it to the person He intended to have it. That doesn't entitle anyone else to it, because of it's abundance.
Charity is at the pleasure of those who have, to those who have not. It is a good thing to thank God by sharing. It is not a requirement.

Didn't you know, it's Obamasshole-Opposite-World now? I don't mind temporarily helping someone who's honestly down on their luck because unlike liberalfilth I'm not a completely unfeeling brute (I'm unpleasant, not cold-blooded). It's when making the dole a permanent lifestyle thing, it's both destructive to society and even the dole-bludger; giving someone a free ride in life is not doing that person any favors in the long run.

Get rid of the employer mandate to deduct payroll taxes and force all people who actually pay taxes to send quarterly payments.
Overnight you would see far more outrage if people had to write a check themselves for those payments. Better yet, lets have those who benefit from no taxes actually go to the payers to collect. Tax reform would be demanded immediately.

That may be, but liberals believe both living life and material things belongs to government, and what they allow you to keep is their gift from them to you.
