You did it indirectly when you in response to a poster said "to whom much is given, much is expected." That is false, and is no justification for requiring those with "much" to pay a disproportionate share of the debt simply because they have "much." The poor (those without "much") are no more deserving of a break than those with "much." The fact is, those with much should have quite a break because they are the folks who create jobs and wealth for everyone else. I'd just like to see more equity in the system, instead of all this beating wealthy folks over the head as if they are evil or something. That is just ridiculous.

Your position is undefendable, and hence you are hedging. Nothing was given to me, yet you clearly claim that I owe it all to something other than my own ambition and hard work.
