Lets see if I worked in the comrade system, I would get paid soley based on longevity and not productivity. Where I am at now, I make significantly more than many of my co-workers sheerly because of my output and quality of work generated, and if I don't like where I am at, I'll move to greener pastures that pay more and offer better benefits.

While I see your point, you completely missed mine.. If you take money out of circulation and give it to the government, it comes out of someones pocket and people don't get rich by giving it away, so the cuts are going to trickle down to everyone.

That is advantage to having a college degree and a little bit of drive..

The socialist system only works when there is the assumption that all people are equal, and to be honest we are not. (i.e. YBD, Redhook etc)
