mph,

re: Here's our basic disagreement.
I'm not in favor of handing over
all assets to the government on
the notion that it knows better
how to spend and redistribute it.


Who ever said they were in favor of handing "all" assets to the government.

Some folks on this thread think that if the government decides to increase spending, as Bush as done, by 13%, 12%, and 10% in three consecutive years, maybe there should be a plan to also increase revenue. Basic conservative principle. And since he's also cutting taxes, maybe the folks that have benefited most from the tax cuts should go back to where they were when we had a balanced budget, or more, so that we can get to a balanced budget.

Now you are turning this into a "class warfare" argument. And then mis-stating other folks arguments, saying they want to take "all" the rich folks money.

Make a decent argument and you will probably get a better response.
