Congratulations, you've managed to show that some Slashdot posters are leftists. Well, in two minutes I found these:

"If you're greedy, you vote democrat - that's how you get entitlements that you're not entitled to, and tax refunds where you never paid any taxes, and government subsidies for things that don't deserve to be subsidized."

"How is it greedy to want to save money? Your own money? I put in the extra hours, I got the deliverable done on time, I did the work, why shouldn't I keep my money? How is that greedy? I think that coveting other people's money is what is greedy. "

"Tax cuts and smaller government just make sense. More money for productive citizens, less for the bureaucrats whose very nature is to prolong the problems they are supposed to be solving so as to hang on to their cushy jobs and pensions."

All from this thread. Conclusion: people have different opinions. Deal with it.

Your slashdot examples are rare, and usually delievered by non-members posting as "anonymous cowards"

This is far more common from their actual members, from the same thread you cite:

I think that if we could just get rid of the USA, like some sort of neutron bomb or something, the entire world will once again live in the tranquil peaceful Utopia that existed before 1903.

You may agree with the perverse rants of their psychotic members, but I never will.
