The person with $11 will have to pay $5 of his own money for the preschool, and end up with only $6. They both have $5 worth of preschool, but the person who worked two more hours ends up with 3 less dollars. Not to mention the higher taxes the harder worker pays. Those tax dollars pay for the other person's free preschool.

The person that works harder and ends up with less to show for it is going to be pissed.

The person that gets free stuff, and gets to keep his own money, is going to say the system is great!

You left out the part about how your taxes are also supporting the guy who makes $1000 an hour to your $1an hour. Even if only one cent of your taxes go to that guy, shouldn't it be just as outrageous to you as the two cents that go to the other guy?
