it’s just the wrong clue, it’s really professor peacock, with the candlestick in the library. I’m clearly not saying that it’s okay for one class of citizen to steal, and not another. Yet loopholes are a legal way to steal from the pot, and so is being an able bodied recipient of social services. I don’t set the moral code for what’s legal, but it’s clear that if a tax loophole is legal but immoral, then receiving a subsidy that you don’t morally deserve but legally qualify for is another form of a loophole. If either were breaking the law then let’s that they eventually be caught, otherwise I assume they found a loophole that applies to them, and I scorn or cheer their ability to manipulate our government for their own needs. The government wasn’t created to rule over, or to use us, it was created to serve us. What I am saying is that the theft from the poor is minute in comparison to the theft from big business and the wealthiest. It’s like wanting to stop people from lighting matches near your house while ignoring the ones with lit torches that are trying to burn it down. However if I had to put a caveat on any theft being "better" or less vile than another, there is no sorrier kind of thief than the one who steals to increase his excess, and there is a special place in hell for those that claim to be Christians while doing so as so do, but I digress on that point. History shows that the financial depressions, recessions, panics and what not weren’t caused because too poor people found loopholes that gave them more than their fair share of the pot. What history does show is how repeatedly big business and the wealthiest Americans have manipulated our markets, and our government for their own gain of profit or power. So go ahead, and stand on the principle that both are wrong, and focus your energy, and gripes on stopping the leak caused by your brethren while you stand idle about the tidal wave of theft from others that have the power to make their theft legal.
