>> THAT is what breaks down political systems...democratic or otherwise.

You will agree, though, that you are on the far left end of the political spectrum, and believe in wealth redistribution and more of a socialist mentality, right?

All of the differences you and I have seem to me to stem from that one thing -- that we believe you should be able to keep what you earn while you believe the state has the right to take that money and redistribute it to those who are less fortunate. Is that not the essence of the opposing views? Is there any other substantive issue?

That is to ask, don't most of these disagreements between right and left essentially relate to how much of the profit from one's own labor and investment he should be allowed to keep for himself?
