In Favor of Redistribution

Let me say right here that I favor wealth redistribution. Sorry, John and Sarah.

I’m talking about downward redistribution. Under every Republican president since Reagan, and most noticeably under the current guy in the White House, wealth has been redistributed upward. The divide between the rich and poor has steadily increased in an audaciously unbiblical fashion. Under Republicans (of who I are one), the rich get richer (through sundry new tax breaks, plus the occasional 700 Billion Dollar Bailout), and the poor get poorer. Ya think Jesus would approve of that?

Isn’t upward redistribution a version of socialism, too?
