Americans Wanting Wealth Redistribution

Check out the bad news:

PRINCETON, NJ — A majority of Americans (58%) say money and wealth should be more evenly distributed among a larger percentage of the people, although slightly less than half (46%) go so far as to say that the government should redistribute wealth by “heavy taxes on the rich.”

And of course look at this little gem of an image:

 Gallup

Perhaps there was something wrong with their poll other than the fact that it is Americans advocating collectivism.

Perhaps this really is a sign that the times are a changing and we are drifting from the values of self-sufficiency and personal responsibility into the value of class war…

Regardless, it makes me feel a little betrayed by my fellow Americans.

We are as rich as we have ever been yet people would favor taking what is not theirs as opposed to working for it.

It is a sign that we are a soft and weak civilization going the way of the buffalo.
