As for me, I will work hard to achieve my goals and create some small measure of wealth for me and my family. and i will try my hardest to not give uncle sam one penny more than i have absolutely have to. and i will continue to fund charities and help those around me the best i can.
Funny, I hear a lot of whining and bitching because some people are sooo selfish that they think it is unfair that they are responsible to help finance the running of the country and the care for those most in need.

The bottom line is this - if individuals were doing a good enough job caring for those in need, the government would not have to provide for them at all. So, just like communism, your idea has failed.

I work hard, I pay my taxes without cheating, I donate to causes that I think are worthy, when I can. I am not so selfish that I will keep it all for me and my family.
