I always challenge the Liberals to explain, that if big government is so good, why aren’t Cuba, Zimbabwe and North Korea economic powerhouses? What has socialism done for Venezuela?
Liberals think that giving people other people’s money generates economic activity, but it actually destroys wealth.
When they take money from rich guy to give to poor guy, rich guy loses the boat he could have spent that money to buy.
The libtardians will say “Well the poor guy will spend that money on stuff he NeeeeeEEEEddds... The rich guy does NEEEeeed a boat”
But the rich guy could have HIRED the poor guy to build him the boat. The poor guy gets the money (for stuff he NeeeedEEeeddsss) AND learns a trade, AND (!!!) the rich guy get’s his money back in the form a a boat, so he lost nothing.
In the first example the money is taken away and he gets nothin- in the second he gives the money away in exchange someone builds him a boat.
