One of the main differences ts, is that most Americans don't take kindly to having a politician, a group of politicians, or the government take money from their pocket and giving it to others with less. Most people, even in the lower income ranges, do give money to those less fortunate than themselves. They DO NOT have to give money to someone else if they don't want to. Unless Obama changes that dynamic. We will have serious trouble if that is mandated here. Most of us do believe in making the pie larger, not that the pie won't/can't ever get bigger. The American Dream is that we can all succeed....ON OUR OWN MERITS and SKILL SET, and WORK! America is one of the most generous countries on earth. Most of us don't believe in Socialism/Communism/Marxism or for that matter, any of the -ism's of yesteryear. If Bill Gates and Paul Allen hadn't started their little business, and if government had taxed it out of the universe in the early years....hundreds of thousands of people wouldn't have jobs, both there, and in other related industries. Millions of people world wide have been helped because Microsoft grew, grew, grew.....and so many other companies like them did as well. The Pie Got BIGGER. Gates formed a Foundation, and anyone can see that Hundreds of Millions of dollars have been given to people around the world.... The Socialist/Marxist idea failed. Freedom works. More countries should try it.
