“In theory, confiscating the wealth of the more successful people ought to make the rest of the society more prosperous.”
Someone once said that if you took away everyone’s money and redistributed it equally to ALL ... in a year the people who had the most to begin with would have it back and the people who were broke before would be broke again!
I believe that.
The meek may inherit the earth, but the next day the strong will take it back.
