Paul--

<<Diminishes the quality of life for those it extracts money from.>>
I can't see Bill Gates, Peter Lewis, or any CEO making multi-million dollar salaries or any billionaire hurt in anyway. The problem is too much is levied in taxes against middle income earners, and too many loopholes for corporations.

<<Creates an inefficient bureaucracy to handle the transfer of money that eats up an ever greater percentage of that transferred.>>

Inefficient, yes. But if you want to emphasize efficiency write your congressman when the next pork barrel spending measure arises. In the process of transfer a job is created for someone to assist in that transfer. The net result is a good thing, someone is credited with a job that may not otherwise have one

<< Punishes the recipients of the transfer by destroying the ability of them to do for themselves.>>

If the recipient is "punished" then I guess an empty belly and a cold house is a reward.
