Obscene Wealth

Who does the work? Never the capitalists, so what use are the thieving buggers?

Let's just get this straight. In your world if I assume all the risk involved with starting a business, work long hours without being able to pay myself to make a go of it, slowly build it up and create jobs for people and finally reach a point of being able to reap the rewards of the business I built (or maybe the business failed and I lose everything)..that to you, I did no work?

Conmen put a lot of effort into thieving. They remain thieves, because they never do anything to help anyone except themselves, as you know..

A common number that gets tossed around is that 80% of start ups fail. In your world this is all an elaborate scheme by "conmen" to rob you?

There is nothing "indefensible" about one sharing in the wealth of the nation, or having the opportunity to do so. What is indefensible is standing by accepting ones role as a serf while defending their lord, and masters.

IMO ..Because of Gods word…The Government should have an increased burden to make sure that its taxes are just, and evenhanded . That's the opposite of your goal of raiding the bank accounts of certain individuals for the pretended benefit of others.

We you shouldn’t be so ignorant on the matters raised. There's at least one divine precept that bears directly on this intersection of the rich, the poor and civil authority. "You shall not follow a multitude in doing evil, nor shall you testify in a dispute so as to turn aside after a multitude in order to pervert justice;nor shall you be partial to a poor man in his dispute." (Exodus 23:2,3) Did you catch that? Here it is again even more clearly in Leviticus: "You shall do no injustice in judgment;you shall not be partial to the poor nor defer to the great, but you are to judge your neighbor fairly." (Lev. 19:15)

How simple. How obviously and completely right. How far from your "social justice" mob.

Jesus says by His Spirit through the prophets that the rich have the same rights as the poor. In legal matters, neither is to be preferred — and neither is to be targeted — because of his means. The only kind of justice God recognizes is actual justice, where the rights of all are upheld equally. The only kind of "fairness" He knows is impartiality. In the Constitution, this is called equal protection of the laws. In the Bible, both voluntary ministry to the poor (that is, mercy) and official protection of private property (that is, justice) are exactly what Jesus would do.

Unfortunately for You and Obama, the question isn'tHow would Jesus tax,butHowdidJesus tax?The problem is biblical, not hypothetical. When God (and Jesus is God) set up a system of taxation for Israel, His taxes were proportional, not progressive — a tithe is the first tenth of whatever you grow, whether rich or poor, whether you had a good crop or a poor one. His taxes were reasonable, taking no more than 23% to fund both church and state (and most of that went to the church). His taxes were honest, not hiding from the poor their share of the burden, as our tax code does. And His taxes went only to fund legitimate functions of these institutions; there was to be no pillaging, and then buying votes with stolen property.

It appears to me that the YOUR envy-driven, lawless, collectivist philosophy of taxation is just about the opposite of Christ's tax policy — in every way.
