I rather like this. Darcy is one of the exceedingly few college students who seems to have a finger on the pulse of how the real world works and how it should work.

Did you actually read the article? "He said many students on college campuses support high taxes on the rich, but when put into relative terms, cringed at the thought of spreading around their academic wealth.

"He said many students on college campuses support high taxes on the rich, but when put into relative terms, cringed at the thought of spreading around their academic wealth. yes i read the article and it was stated by fox that it would be something to follow up with these students when they have jobs and see how they feel about higher taxes on their money going to those who do not work and have wealth redistributed to them .he tried to relate the sharing their gpa which they earned to those who make a lot of money not wanting to pay higher taxes to be given to those who do not want to work or earn a living.

Well said 73. This is precisely the point at which the "redistribution" theories collapses on themselves. If people received money (or Grade Points) for doing nothing, why work at all. Why produce anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
