Understanding Wealth Re-Distribution

We hear a lot about wealth re-distribution, but exactly what is it, and how does it work? These are some of the details I’ve been able to gather so far…

Wealth re-distribution, previously called stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, requires 3 not 2, groups of people to make it work. This is rarely talked or written about, and this is by design.

The First group is the wealth creators: the inventors, the entrepreneurs, the marketers, etc. If no wealth is created, nothing can be stolen & re-distributed.

Second is the ‘needy’ group, historically the ‘poor’. If there are no poor there is no justification for stealing from the rich.

Third is the re-distributors themselves. Some one individual, or small group, has to manage the actual process of stealing from some and giving to others, or. . . keeping the wealth themselves. This group prefers to work in secret, and if possible, prevent people from even knowing that they exist.

How, in detail, does this re-distribution process work?

To steal from the wealthy (Code name: Rich), re-distributors first need to seize all defensive weapons from the wealth producers so they can no longer defend themselves. This is typically done using political power, and passing laws. Then the re-distributors can steal to their hearts content.

The re-distributors, and this is rarely mentioned, having stolen the wealth from the wealth producers, can either give it to others, the so-called needy, or simply keep it for themselves.

To avoid people seeing that this is what they are doing, some PR (Public Relations) is necessary. So for every say $100 they steal; they, with great show & fan fare, give $2-$5 to their favorite ‘needy’ group. In addition to the PR effect, this also keeps the needy group in their ‘needy’ state. The so-called poor will remain poor. The re-distributors need to maintain & nourish these needy groups, as they are the sole justification for stealing from the wealth creators, and then keeping that wealth for themselves.

But sometimes events outside of the re-distributors control can occur. During the 20th century (1900-1999) the ‘poor’ of the United States of America experienced constantly increasing standards of comfort & living. This posed a significant threat to the re-distributors.

So, the re-distributors greatly encouraged a new fashion – Rights!

Rights became the cultural in-thing, like mini-skirts. Rights were subtle, and often so compelling. Today, anyone can stand up and shout, they rarely whisper, “I have a ‘Right’ to whatever they want, and no one is giving me my newly created ‘right’”. They then demand: Would someone, Please, go out and steal from the wealth producers and give my new right to me for ‘free’.”
As a commission for doing this robbery for me, the re-distributors can keep anywhere from 1% to 99% of the take.

Historical Background:
If you, as an Individual, wanted to have something you could not afford, say a big screen TV, you could have become a criminal and go out and steal it yourself. You could either steal the TV, or the money to buy the TV.

But a criminal career has it’s drawbacks. The hours are poor. Sometimes you have to work (steal) in the evening or nighttime, when others are going to restaurants & shows. You also have to buy guns, ammunition, holsters, etc. and devote some non-productive hours to target shooting, learning how to clean-up a crime scene (getting increasingly high tech), drive get-away cars safely, etc. There’s also the risk of being shot by a homeowner, or police officer. This risk can be minimized by restricting your activities to states or cities where homeowners have already had their self-defense weapons confiscated.

What do you think?

Do you know some re-distributors?

    Democrat Party… and that includes the Press.
