Go live in Afghanistan; it's the perfect example of a country without a government.

But that IS how it works.  Any sort of government social program is simply taking from some and giving to others.  Ever has it been so.

However, these people are happy to redistribute their wealth:

Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and the billionaire challenge

  Not how it works. Remember how mad you were about people in congress not having your interests at heart? So now you want people in the .gov to take from others and give to you?  On what basis?  By what merit?

Glad you deleted your first answer, Colin Powell.  He is definitely not on the right side of the aisle any longer, he did endorse BHO for POTUS.

Well the discusion is over,  all the credibility comes from the left.  There is no other valid point of view.  Finally, we agree.

Well, I wish he would redistribute some wealth in my direction, I could use some. Really, I don't think you have a thing to worry about.

No, can't say that I can think of a one. How about you?

By the way ?

Find any credible information sources on the right side of the aisle ?

I knew you would skirt that issue because you don't believe anything from the right side of the aisle is credible.

Oh yeah? Whose wealth is getting redistributed, the people who lose their temporary tax breaks, which, btw, aren't paid for, and the amount is huge.

You like the greedy running your company? To me, that is much worse than Marxism, which is a wonderful theory but doesn't work, because people are GREEDY! Our country is now a corporatocracy, and the ideas that fill your head are being brought to you by the likes of very rich powerful people who want things the way they were because it made them rich.

I am sorry that you are unable to get what Obama is trying to do, which is to bring back some balance in this country. Otherwise the Middle Class, of which I assume you belong, is going to go down the drain. And we will continue to slide as a country into the gutter. Do you know that 1.2 million high school kids drop out every year?

And since I realize that you are prolly just looking for someone to argue with you, and I am not interested in doing that, I am done with this conversation.
