To the Marxist above, “Those who benefit from society should not be forced to pay for those who drag it down. A nation without incentive to succeed is a nation destined to blind mediocrity. Foolish is the man who believes his tax dollars go toward progressing another man's position in life rather than keeping him there indefinitely. Prosperity is based upon incentive; incentive to succeed, to live confidently, and to prosper. Redistribute a man’s success, and teach the masses nothing but mediocrity.”
