No, they're not seriously ridiculous.

Liberals think Gates is rich because he was "lucky", therefore you want to take some of his rewards and give them to the janitor that wasn't "lucky".

I used your same measurement and decided since ted was "lucky" and was rewarded two degrees for his hard work, why shouldn't the govt gove me one of his degrees since I wasn't "lucky"?

No straw man there, just using your own example to demonstrate how a nuance can be used to bite a liberal in the butt...

Kinda like liberals decided they would have all of this new tax money rolling in with the "luxury tax" they passed. Nothing happened....

The most maddening thing about you is your straw man arguments. They're seriously ridiculous.

Truly. And I am the recipient of many of them. That's why I have to put him on ignore. Its gets tiring.
