...Oh dear, you in your small corner and I in mine!!<br />Those wealthy people who earned their wealth by honest sweat, those kind compassionate capitalists who provide everybody with a job?. Honest sweat doesn't provide wealth, getting more out than you put in gets you wealthy. If all it was, was honest sweat I would have inherited considerable wealth. My father was a coal miner all his life and earned the reputation of a real hard grafter, we were poor all our life! what went wrong? No he didn't drink or gamble.Take a deeper look at the world we live in, you accumulate wealth by taking out more than you put in, what you gain is taken from the big pot, wealth in this society has nothing to do with how hard you work but more about how much you can get out of other people's work.<br />I don't inhabit your world of those nice millionaires how got there by HONEST hard work, and capitalists who are fair caring and compassionate organisations for the fulfillment of other people's welfare.Oh, and accumulating wealth in the midst of other people's needs seems to contradict some ancient Christian guy's principles.ann arkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06922062627756737185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186608697830229050.post-40406820831273738842012-11-23T04:38:19.179+00:002012-11-23T04:38:19.179+00:00So you applaud theft of someone else's private...So you applaud theft of someone else's private property because of someone else's need or want?<br /><br />If someone can justify "liberating" tools, building materials and the like, would you likewise applaud the person who steals from another with equal need for the same item? Or what about stealing food from someone who may or not be hungry? <br /><br />Unless I misinterpret the reason you posted this, you applaud the "liberation" of goods based on your arbitrary perception of each party's relative need. <br /><br />The people with wealth may have looted through crony capitalism, which seems to be your main assumption, and thus grown wealthy, or they may have actually worked hard and EARNED their property. Should the owners of the construction sites be screened and researched to make sure that <br />Robin o' the 'ood is stealing from the bad rich instead of the rich guy who gains wealth through the honest sweat of his brow, providing employment to others in the process? <br /><br />So what if the construction projects are financed by banks? The owner still has to produce some product that another person wants to buy to the degree that the builder makes enough profit to pay off the loan with interest and make enough cash to make the whole effort worth his while...<br /><br />If someone steals your property because they say they "need" it more than you, and say you catch this person with some of your neighbors, and the person is a stranger to all of you...and say you live in a society without government or police---you know, anarchy---what do you suppose happens to the looter?<br /><br />What moral code do you value?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
