The Greediest Americans

It is amazing how many of the intelligentsia call it ‘greed’ to want to keep what you have earned, but not greed to want to take away what somebody else has earned, and let politicians use it to buy votes. – Thomas Sowell
Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are the greediest people in American history.  They promise to take trillions of dollars they did not earn from other people in order to give it to others in return for which the promised recipients will give them political power.  And since both believe in a political creed in which everything one does is political and in which the government has untrammeled authority it will be unprecedented power over the people of the United States.  In their world, individual liberty is conditional upon its conformance to their personal desires.  I can think of nothing more greedy.
