I usually don't waste time responding to twits. However, the comment by "Anonymous" to this article at Robbing America is exceptionally vacant and illustrates the problem reasonable people have in cutting back the welfare state once it becomes entrenched.
Once those in the private market concede that the public market is a legitimate and adequate means of "fixing" any social "problem," then there can be no end to the demands for more from those ensconced in the public market. Robbing Peter to pay Paul becomes the rule rather than the exception. The "Pauls" among us cannot conceive of any way to solve their personal, economic "problem" other than by extorting increased "revenue" from the Peters among them.
In a democracy where the Pauls outnumber the Peters reason and logic become irrelevant in political and economic discourse. Whatever serves to fire up the mob works just fine as the modus operandi of those in the public market.
Keep an eye on Madison, Wisconsin and Greece for further developments on the public market vs the private market front.
