Nonsense. Fortunes are made and lost, not just made. You are starting to seize upon your privilege of absurdity. Your ideas may be virtuous to many (even including myself) but the methods are obscene.

That is not the dang issue. The issue concerns the basis whereby you claim others have an ipso facto 50 dang percent claim against my income. I cannot begin to even think how you could say such a thing when folks labor and risk and spend to make that income. It may look easy. But it ain't. Sure. It gets easier as time goes on, but it never gets easy. When you got millions of dollars riding on a dang decision, hundreds or thousands of livelihoods depending on what you do. THAT AIN'T DANG EASY FELLA! Now I don't think anyone who makes money should complain. I ain't complaining. BUT DANG! I got a dang right to complain when folks start claiming a dang right to HALF my friggin' income and for no dang good reason. This is dang insanity.
