I see where you are coming from jduff, and i agree with you that some people are born with more opportunities than others which may lead to the rich and poor classes, but from my experience and the experience of others, government often supports the rich class and vise versa for their own personal gain which often causes the poor to become (rightfully so)angry, hence the massive Occupy Wall Street movement. But when government tries to redistribute wealth to the poor they often do a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ job of it, and not only do the poor suffer in the long term but the people that were force to pay for the poor also suffer.In my experience charities do more good to the poor and needy then government redistribution of wealth. Example: New Orleans Katrina Disaster, charities built 10x more homes than FEMA(Federal Emergency Management Agency) did.
I appreciate your critique of my position JDuff, thank you.
