Another analogy:

There are 10 men living in a village, and there are 8 different jobs available, that are all essential to the welfare of the village but have different pay:
Man #1 has a job that pays $100 a day.
Man #2 has a job that pays $70 a day.
Man #3 has a job that pays $50 a day.
Man #4 has a job that pays $40 a day.
Man #5 has a job that pays $30 a day.
Man #6 has a job that pays $20 a day.
Man #7 has a job that pays $10 a day.
Man #8 has a job that pays $5 a day.
Man #9 has no job.
Man #10 has no job.

WHY does #1 make so much more than #8 ?

Does he work harder?
Is he better educated?

Do you think it was just luck?

And why would #8 work as hard as #1 for so much less money?

Why would #1 work harder than #8 if at the end of the day the villagers are going to take part of his money and give it away?

What are the lazy bastards #9 and #10 doing at a restraunt trying to bum a meal with no money.....

Don't the first 8 pay enough taxes so the village has food stamps?



noooo - I just don't think it makes a bit of sense....
