You study hard and get an A. The other guy parties all weekend, and gets a D-. The professor takes points from the kid that studied hard and gives them to the kid who partied all weekend.

Both kids get a C. They are now EQUAL.

When the kids that studied hard figure out they aren't going to get an A, they are going to party and **** around too. Pretty soon, NO ONE knows the material, the college just hands EVERYONE a diploma. Do you want your DR. or your AIRLINE pilot only knowing 50% of the material???

The same applies towards money. One earns a lot, one earns little, government takes away and gives to the other, the hard worker says screw it, and quits working too.
