From your posts that I've read, I think this is the difference between you and me.

You don't want your wealth redistributed to the poor, disadvantaged, or handicapped people, and I'm ok with some of what little wealth I have helping out those folks. Including your wife, even though her husband's on-line persona comes across as heartless.

I don't want my wealth redistributed to those who are wealthy already, Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, the executives of ENRON, Worldcom, Tyco, Chrysler, any airline, Big Oil, any religious-associated groups, politicians, and I may get back to you with some others, and you apparently don't mind helping out those folks.

I would agree with you. If I weren't that lucky I guess we would come up with another plan or be on the dole like others not so lucky.

I am not heartless. Just discussing the broader view of things.

And quick to reconsider when the shoe is on the other foot.
