Nothing wrong with doing right.

Nothing wrong with the rich subsidizing the poor. By paying substantial taxes that go into social welfare programs.  Call it redistribution of wealth, or whatever one chooses. I’m all for it. Fair is fair. And spreading the wealth is fair. It’s all right to have a society that includes many rich people. But at the same time, society should be structured in ways to reduce the number of poor people. By giving some a helping hand. Maybe by finding jobs for the unemployed. And by offering public and private assistance that help guarantee basic necessities for the needy. –Jim Broede
