I saw a video regarding wealth distribution and college campuses. The journalist went around the rally (anti-free market pro socialism) asking students if they supported redistribution and if they did, asked them what their gpa was. If it was B or higher they posed a question to them. Stating that there are many students at their college getting Cs or lower. That there was a proposal in the school being voted on that would make A students B students and B students C students to "distribute" grades more evenly. So that "all" students could graduate and have "equal" or closer to equal grades.
They were then asked if they would support this plan. I didn't see everyone's responses as I was not there, but the responses I did see were a resounding no. With things like it's not fair, and I earned that being primarily said.
Bottom line is, you either believe what you earn is your or you don't. It can be applied to almost all things in life.

I just want to put into perspective that if you are against the concept of welfare (in which those who have a large net income are taxed to support those below the poverty line) you are supporting the literal starvation of the lower working class. [spoiler]i don't know if you are or not. Your thesis was not well developed in your comment.[/spoiler]

I am for a true free market and limited government. So in my world those working class people could have gardens and not be fined by the city. And I am very much against welfare in its current form.

So they can have their gardens.

Why should I give them seeds?

Seeds are how you grow food... Though the free market allows a design patent those now so you have to buy new seed each year and if you keep any seed to carry over to the next season Monsanto will sue you for everything you have. Gardening is hard..

Monsanto is criminal.
