For one thing, the Gov't doesn't redistribute wealth. Nobody is getting wealthy from something the Gov't is doing(except those getting the no-bid contracts he was talking about last week.) Also, there rarely is anything fair about wealth. The oil companies have been getting rich charging poor people 40-50 cents a gallon profit for quite a while the last 4 or 5 years, and nobody hardly complained about that lack of competition involved. Funny time to bring up fairness after that didn't bother you.
