Actually, I could say the same of you. Who died and made you God to take from Peter to pay Paul?

Do you even understand that when the government runs deficits, that it's not a free lunch? It is a transfer payment. Someone loses and someone gains. Unfortunately, when the government decides where to spend the money, they typically invest in projects with poor return on investment. They are always worse at choosing high ROI projects than the private sector. It's particularly bad when the government does it with borrowed or printed money.

No one made me God, which is why I trust others to earn and keep what they earned without molestation. Unfortunately, the Dems believe they have God's mandate to allocate other people's money as they see fit.
