Yep the two sides here really stand out.
One side with their delusional egalitarian utopian visions looks around and sees great wealth discrepancies they perceive as unfair. Their think their looney egalitarian utopia could be established if only the omniscient wizards of smart were in control in order to redistribute wealth according to their preconceived ideas as to just how much each should have. Their grand schemes demands and requires coercion against others for implementation.
The other side looks around realizing they must get off their duffs to achieve their visions of taking care of themselves and families for a better life realizing it is only possible from their own efforts and it won't be given to them by others.
What I really find astounding is the haughty condescension from the left towards those striving to take care of themselves to the best of their abilities. The leftists proclaims to know better than you how your money should be spent and they also know better than you what your best interests are since they deem you intellectually inferior for not sharing their grandiose idiotic ideas !!!!
As documented by the following.

Yep it is all vary apparent Pox and Reaper and any other productive individual is that you all are just seen a means for others ends, that you don't hold for yourselves. The left needs you the productive for their ends where as they are nothing but leeches on your productive efforts.
