Reply To: No Taxation with Representation

What set me off here was that in you original post you said that in a monarchy redistribution of wealth isn’t done by its recipients. That just isn’t true.

Well, we don’t have to fight over what I didn’t mean.

“Redistribution of wealth” is a term of art. It means redistributing from the richer people to the poorer people.

Taking money from people to build bridges is not redistribution of wealth. Taking money from rich people to feed or clothe poor people is redistribution of wealth.
