Thank you, Calvin (philosopher who said basically what you just said).
Maggie, you seriously need a reality check. The vast majority of rich people in this country started out poor and worked their asses off for a better life, like my father. In this country, you become rich because you are smarter, stronger, faster, and more industrious. So if you think that (this goes for BAT too) that stealing from the rich and giving to the poor is just, then you really don't know what you're talking about. It's like taking the gold from an olympian and giving it to the guy in last for no reason. The poor in this country are kept down, but with nothing that can't be overcome. That's what's great about America. The spoils go to the successful ones. WHy should they be robbed of their hard earned spoils? i don't know what its like to be poor, and i sure as hell didn't work for what i have now, but if i'm a failure or don't want it, i will become poor when i grow up. I do not understand why you think that stealing from anyone to give money to a bunch of bums is just. The system works as it is, and if people want money they can get off their asses and get it. And i already explained what happens when money is stolen from the top and given to the bottom.
Maggie stop listening to a bunch of un-motivated pot heads who think that they should be given everything. Correct me if i'm wrong, but these people are rich anyway. So they'd lose all their pot money.
