but the premiss that poor people make them selves poor thru life choices is not always true

I agree, of course it's not always true. There are exceptions on both sides (The Kennedy's who are rich, but never worked an honest day's labor in their lives, simply living on the plunder gather by bootlegger ancestor Joe come to mind) Likewise there are some poor people who work pretty darn hard, but on the whole how hard you work and how wisely (or foolishly) you spend your money determine your economic status.

I find disgusting the whole idea that the state (which when you come right down to it is just a collection of not very bright people who are driven much more than the rest of us by the need for power over others) should determine how the wealth of society is distributed. I find it particulary outrageous when the only role the state and its army of pompous arrogant bureaucrats had in creating wealth was to put hurdles in the way of productive elements of society.
