A student went around asking his peers if they believed in redistribution, by taxing the wealth earned by the wealthy, and then asked if they wanted to redistribute the fruits of their labor and hard work, as in their GPAs. The results were too funny.
Could prob ask them the same thing about on-line computer games like WoW, and asking them to give away the gold and some of that epic loot they got from their last dungeon raid. LOL

Oh no, that would be off limits. They would never part with their hard earned character skills and gold! But other people's money, that's a different story!
Wealth being redistributed from the middle to the top is terrible for the economy. Redistribution of wealth is a two way street and we now have 30some years of history to back up the negative impacts of "trickle down" economics. Until Republicans understand that FACT, it's pointless to discuss the issue.

Every time taxes were lowered tax revenue went up, and then the politicians and bureaucrats spent it all. When will democrats understand that?
But that is not the lesson here. The lesson is that people are happy to take the heard earned fruits of other people's labor, but they balk when you ask them to give up some of theirs. Of course the reason for that is that these redistribution lovers view the other folks as evil, bad, dishonest, or just the winners in life's lottery. But don't the kids with the 2.0 GPA think those with a higher GPAs won life's lottery, because either they went to better K-12 schools, or were blessed with a higher IQ?

Just proves that educated people value intellect more than money.
Unlike with intellect, many people with money did not work for it, or did little to earn it.
Money may buy a lot of things but intellect and class are not amongst them.
Do you pay your bills out of an "intellect" account?
Genius.
