Existence
Your existence consists of at least these 3 things.
A) Your natural physical abilities from genetic outlay, modified and shaped by activity and event.
2), Your natural mental abilities from genetic outlay, modified with conscious and unconscious knowledge and beliefs from experience, study, relationships and other stimuli and processed through analysis and synthesis.
C) Whatever time remains in your future to use them.
So..
When you are taxed to provide sustenance for a non-producer, the government is taking a slice of what is produced by your existence to extend the future of an existence that doesn't think enough of itself to provide for itself.
Thus... A slice of your capability to extend your future or the expand the quality of your future, given to someone else to extend their future or expand the quality of their future.
If you aren't outraged, then you aren't paying attention.

So you think you absolutely need everything you have? That everyone puts themselves in situations such as making it so they have to recieve welfare and whatnot? I disagree. While there are many who purposefully put themselves in these situations where they need their needs to be fulfilled by the government or whatnot, there are also many others who are dropped into this situation who need the help of those much for fortunate then they are to help them.
I'm a big believer in charity, and I act on that belief. But charity should be the choice of the provider, not something extracted at the point of a gun as taxes are. And if you don't believe taxes are extracted at the point of a gun, go watch your county sheriff evict someone from their home after a tax sale. It's not a pretty sight, my friend.
But that point aside, what claim does anyone have on my life or the production I make of it? What has need got to do with it?
Should my daughter that earns an "A", get a "C" because some other student will get a beating from her dad for getting an "F"? The very thought that someone has a right to something based on need is morally and intellectually vacant.
It is compassionate and proper to help our fellow man as we deem fitting. But to take from the deserving and give indiscriminately to the needy and lazy alike is a scourge upon all that it touches.
Voluntary charity elevates all it touches. Involuntary redistribution of wealth is a disease that destroys all societies that have ever implemented it.
We have created a class of parasites. It is growing. There will come a time where investment and production become unprofitable because the penalty for being successful becomes too large. Then the producers move on and the violence begins.
This process is called outsourcing. If you're wondering where the jobs are going, expensive labor caused by high taxes is shipping them overseas.
It is the lesson of history, and if you aren't outraged, you're not paying attention.
