    The only wealth redistribution they allow is from the poor to the rich. Bonus points if they can:

    1. Increase tax pressure on the poor.
    2. Make it so the poor vote for tax cuts.
    3. Hand out said tax cuts to the rich.
    4. Profit from “donations”.

    The liberal play book is so dumb and yet so effective.

    EDIT: To all those that got offended by the dunk on liberals, consider this: When did your liberal government in practice and in a meaningful capacity increase tax pressure on the rich and allocate the increased funds to the benefit of the poor? Also, if you are not for more equitable redistribution of wealth, what are you even doing in this community?

        The extraction of surplus value is usually done with no regard for and to the direct detriment of the well-being of the foundation on which value is being created.
