YOU BET I DO. You should too.

So you think your opinion is THE RIGHT ONE now?  I should too?  You base your
entire theory one two theorical cases: The Superman vs. The low-life asshole.
Reality is not like that.  People shouldn't have their kids starve to death
because they made bad choices.  People shouldn't eat only once a day because
they weren't born white, rich and in a good household.

Reality is more painful than that.  People sometimes make good choices and get
bad results.  You do NOT control everything.  Sometimes, things go bad and no
one is responsible.  So yes, I want them to be able to live of other people's
taxes.  Yes, I think it's fair for everyone that everyone gets enough money to
eat and sleep in a safe place, even if some have to pay more than others.


If you don't, I suggest you have issues. (More issues than I already >realised.)

Yeah yeah yeah... I'm the one with issues here, sure.  I'm the one concerned for
the people starving to death and you're the one who once had 3 sports car in
your garage saying that it's the way it should be.

I'd call you a wannabe thief if I was feeling grumpier. The thing most >people
forget about the Robin Hood legend is that he was taking ill gotten gains
from
criminals and giving them to the very people they were stolen from.

Pathetic.  You'd rather see your tax money go to bombing Iraq than go to people
within your own country who need it to eat?  So poor people are thieves because
they profit from social welfare?  This is a disgrace.  You should be ashamed of
such a point of vue.  I pity you.

1 - I'm not much on caviar but I've in the past owned 3 sports cars at the >same
time... gave that addiction up for LEGO though

I'd feel terribly sick if I had the means of owning 3 sports car at once and
didn't think that this money you spent on them would have been better used if
spent on food for the poors.  I'm almost certain you don't believe in community
work either, am I right?  Heck, working to help others for free?  How
anti-capitalist!!!  Well, the idea I was promoting is just that.  Helping others
for free.  Except, instead of asking for your time, a thing no one one earth can
have illimited, I was proposing that yopur govt used money it already has and
use it more intelligently.  But that's a lot to ask from a right-winger, I
know...
