@SoulManX, you just advanced to level 1!
Socialism's not the problem, socialism with authoritarianism, totalitarianism, or fascism is the issue.
See, I'm not adverse to helping people by spending some of my paycheck toward people that don't have the ability to work. I'm fully cognizant of these sorts of issues people have. As much as I think taxation is a form of theft, it's mildly justifiable theft in my opinion.
But if the government didn't spend money so frivolously, we wouldn't need to spend as much in taxes.

My Dad was diagnosed with primary/progressive MS when he was younger than me. I can sympathize with your circumstances. He too is on SS Disability.
Imagine all the videos we don’t get to see. The censorship is out of hand
@Maw. That sounds a lot like. I don't mind getting screwed if you by me Dinner First?...lol
I don't think so?
Well let's say we had a system where anyone who felt like they had enough to give could give it to people in need. How do the people in need get their story out? How do they 'market' themselves to have people help them?
I'd think that'd be kind of demeaning.
Distortion is the order of the day, in many forms, throughout every institution. Still we are a nation under the Rule of Law
Looks more like at least two sets of rules for enforcing law.
@Maw. I guess taxation is like Robin Hood then?
Finagling the laws is rampant.
No, I'm not advocating for stealing from rich people.
I'd ask why Robin Hood never collects from the wealthy business interests, who use tax avoidance schemes. The Robin Hood in the US takes from the middle class and gives to the aforementioned corporations.
MUCH More than that
Let's define rich?
My point is simple. If you consider Taxation theft. What is done with the theft is really irreverent?
What are you saying?
As I said, I feel it's a form of justified theft. I guess you could also call it a social contract.
Watched it earlier, my brother is fluent in chinese, he says that the translation is spot on. The corruption is unreal.
Jumbo Shrimp!
Just like it's a social contract that you can't infringe on my rights if you want to keep your own.
I’m saying the rich are legally advantaged and there are many rich and powerful fighting legal battles for power
If it is Justified. It is not theft....
Where is the disagreement?
This is like saying it's not killing someone if it's justified.
We are in agreement
All the Justice power can influence.
Killing and Murder are two different things.
I can change 'killing' to homicide if you'd like. Still the same.
It's still a crime.
Killing in The name of, corporations and government, is a virtue.
"To kill for yourself is murder. To kill for your government is heroic."
Some may argue that Point. Death Penalty....
This situation doesn’t help those who cherish liberty and justice for all. True freedom our forefathers fought for has been hyjacked.
Many of the rights under the Bill of Rights have been stripped away.
