I’ll try one last time:
If someone breaks into my house and steals my jewelry (i.e., my wealth), it DOES NOT give me the right to break into my neighbor’s house to steal their jewelry in return...
...except, I guess, if you call the jewelry “Social Security”.
You're killing me with your analogies, Bob...they don't make sense. Social Security was "sold" to the people as an "insurance" against retiring in poverty. So that people of a certain age would not be dependent upon their physical health for income in their aging years. As a conservative, I don't believe in that contract; I believe individually-funded retirement encourages more fiscal responsibility, and the benefits of a private retirement account are significantly greater than a public one.
Be that as it is, your analolgy is that the government is "stealing" our money. Let me ask you this, if someone you know steals your jewelry, and you take it back from them, is that wrong?
