That is some of the most convoluted UNreasoning I've seen in -- oh, since the last time I read anything written by a "progressive".
To recap, leaving money belonging to the "wealthy" in their pockets equals stealing something from Robert Reich? For the government to not take from one who earns the money to give to someone else equals stealing something from all the Robert Reichs?
I see it, I hear it, but it doesn't make any more sense than it ever did. They stand where they do, firm in their "progressivity", and although I understand that they do, I will never understand how they got there. It's infuriating, frankly.
TONE ALERT: I fantasize about sitting on one of them, repeatedly asking "whose money is it?", throttling them until they choke out the right answer.
