Let me keep my cash

The title of this story (which I did not read) is Clinton: Bush is robbing from poor to give to rich.

I just despise class warfare. This whole idea of taking money from one American for the benefit of another just makes me so angry. Yes, it is wrong for the government to take money away from poor people and give it the wealthy (which happens all the time with subsidies). But it is also wrong for the government to take money away from the rich and give it to the poor (which happens all the time with welfare). Guess what people? It is always wrong to steal...no matter what the economic condition of the person from whom the money is being stolen.

If we got rid of the morally pungent income tax, then we wouldn't have this discussion at all. There would be no government sanctioning of the "us vs. them", "rich vs. poor", "haves vs. have-nots" attitudes. There would be no politician who could promise to take money away from group of "not-liked/unworthy" people to give to a group of "liked/worthy" people.

I don't need or want anyone else's money...just let me keep me what I earn and I'll be happy.
