Pay your fair share

The left has some clever main strategies for getting their hands on
the vast amounts of money required to pay for their Robin Hood
programs. It is buried in their foundation words like "citizen" and
"society" and in my favorite phrase "pay your fair share." I hear
that one on the news everyday "corporations need to pay their fair
share!"

Let's take a closer look at that phrase. The poor don't pay any
income taxes and yet they get all those "benefits." All those benefits
are paid for by somebody else, not them. I don't see how THAT fits
under pay your fair share. Monetarily speaking, that is as unfair as
it gets. And with the progressive tax idea, the more money you
generate the more "fair" it is to take your money apparently. I don't
know how they got away with that one, but I think it goes back to
"citizen of society" concepts.

By framing the issue around our big happy family, our society, all
people are members. As an esteemed member of the group, you the
citizen (member), are entitled to a wonderful set of benefits and
rights!
Notice how the word "entitled" just slips right through that door
along with "member." Clever huh? You have to admire that. You are an
"equal" member in our big club and you get to "share" in the
benefits! This sounds great doesn't it? There is a tiny problem
however in that all you have to do to become a "member" is to be BORN.
That is pretty much it. You don't really have to pay your fair share
at all! That part is a lie. Just "show up" and open your hand. Now I
am only speaking monetarily here as that is my main concern, not to
ignore the "humanitarin" aspects of all of this. I know this all
sounds so callous but I am talking about the simple math here. Math is
callous, and it cannot be ignored.

So you see how the left has made these ideas SO compelling, mainly
to the poor, and ultimately beneficial to themselves as well, because
along with giving out all the goodies they get those votes. It is the
greatest system ever devised. Right up until the money runs out. We
have arrived there. Now it gets ugly. All those members firmly believe
in these ideas of entitlement. It is burned into their very DNA. We
are in for quite the catfight. Too bad we couldn't have had this
simplistic debate earlier.
