That's stupid anyway, when you consider how little that wealth is spread when the gov takes it from you. All it does is enlarge the gov, not help anyone else. The goal of the socialist/democrat party is to make us into a European socialist economy, which is a failure. The elite want to maintain their power by promising that socialist Utopia, that they can't deliver. What makes anyone believe that America is going to be able to do better with socialism than any other country that has failed?
I vote for the one that is closest to conservative as is available. If that is a wish-washy Trump, then that is still better than a socialist from the Democrat party. Especially one that lies, steals and is disloyal to those that work for her. And if any libertarian thinks that I would vote for a hippy in a suit, that is no better than a liberal, they are crazy. If I have a "ball and chain" attached, it is only to my values. Am I not open minded? Yes, open enough to see what socialist wish to do with our great nation. Open in that my eyes have been quite open from traveling the world most of my life and seeing it for myself. And I am not naive enough to pretend that our country can take a ancient system of socialism and make it successful in our country. We have the best in the world and it can always be tweaked, but we do not need to change it. Why fix it if it is not broken? Even with it's faults, it is better than ANY other country in the world. I do not see anyone trying to escape our country.

Everything you talk about...your country...its greatness.
That's ALL history. That all ended in the 60s.
We are NOT a "great country" full of "great people"...not any more.
We're a bully of a "country" because it's run by greedy men working for greedy corporations. When have we NOT been at "war" with something or somebody in the last 25 years?
We're now from age 6 down, NOT full of "great people" nor people capable of being great. We're now #17 and dropping fast as the minorities take over.
This "America" you love is long gone. Replaced by corruption and diversity. You lost it, you gave it away, you should have listened!
