I have no beef with folks having a bad time, or needing a hand, or people who are unable to work getting benefits. Those are the people that I think we have an obligation as a society to help.



No. You don't get to have it both ways. you either believe any kind of "social safety net" is an communist abomination of you don't. Just like pro-lifers can't say they support abortion only in cases of rape or incest.

All taxation is redistribution of wealth. your arbitrary dividing line of what amount is sensible has no more objective meaning than anyone else's.
