[Friedrich Hayek]

Robin Hood was a Liberal who stole from the rich and redistributed it to the poor. We don't know what was in it for him. We do know there is no free lunch.

No, you are wrong. If you remember the original story, Robin was knocking over the Sheriff's shipments of tax revenue. He was stealing taxes from the government and giving it back to the people who earned it.

The local government had levied confiscatory taxes on the people and Robin was leading a tax revolt.

Guess it's time to go back and read the original story. Have seen too many "Hollywierd" versions and am thinking about them.

Don't forget the clerics whose pockets he lightened as well. His targets were corrupt government and corrupt church officials.

Actually, Robin Hood wasn't a real man but a legendary conglomeration of several whose exploits got embellished in the retelling.
