you are a Jeb!-populist. :-/
What?
low energy!
redistribution is a good addition to the populist mindset!
I define wealth as being legitimately earned. "Wealth" that is not legitimately earned is not wealth. I'm a believer that any true free-marketer should oppose free trade, since there is no guarantee that other countries like China won't subsidize companies in exchange for kickbacks to party grandees. In what way is allowing Apple to have unfair foreign support a "free market" principle?
So, in that sense, I can see circumstances where "wealth" can be "redistributed."
See, some posters here just downright think my dad should have to turn over every dollar he earns after he hits a million dollars (I suspect he will in his lifetime). What has he done to be punished that way?
I favor universal, single payer care. I think a millionaire in Hollywood and a homeless crackhead in Baltimore should have the same access to free healthcare, as they would pay into it equally through a sales tax in my ideal system. Why should the millionaire be less worthy than a literal crackhead and have to pay for their own healthcare on top of the crackheads? That is an example of the inherently evil nature of wealth redistribution.
