I really enjoyed this short article. It roars right out of individualism and the individual's soveriegnty. Advocates of government wealth redistribution blatantly insult the rest of us by denying us the good sense it takes to spend our wealth.
We've seen redistribution discredited on the economic level, we've seen its historical roots exposed, we have seen it discredited on the moral level, and we have seen many ways in which the various arguments for redistribution have been shredded for their logic failures, but what Professor Machan gave us was a logical argument joined to the emotional outrage at the presumption of the collectivists - and that has been a badly needed, and delightful addition to the debate.
