As long as the left has existed, The French Revolution comes to mind, they have demonized the “rich”. When there are no more “rich” in a nation, you have Zimbabwe..................
"...Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no rich no more."
To me, these lines illustrate the essential difference between Liberals and Conservatives.
If a Conservative wrote those lines they would read;
"...Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no poor no more."
Mathews deserves nothing but a good nut-kicking.
