​​The Moral Defects of Public Finance https://www.theepochtimes.com/opinion/the-moral-defects-of-public-finance-5424003 Over the course of the 20th century, the practice of government redistribution of wealth from some citizens to others became the standard operating procedure in Washington. The groundwork was laid by the adoption in 1913 of the Marxian graduated income tax via the 16th Amendment. This telegraphed the progressives’ intention to convert and pervert the federal government from an impartial night watchman that would protect each American’s property with equal fervor to a corrupt dealer in favors, as in, “You vote for me, and I’ll provide a favor, a subsidy, for you at the expense of your neighbors.”

Indeed, a massive intellectual fraud called social justice has been concocted for the purpose of convincing Americans that although it's a crime for you to take some of your neighbor’s wealth, it's morally righteous for a democratic majority to vote for politicians who will appropriate your neighbor’s wealth on your behalf and give it to you.
