I am going to start at the point at which redistribution of wealth is NOT a constitutionally authorized function of government and therefore should not be happening. Once we abandon this point, we can chase the rabbit indefinitely because politicians are going to buy both votes and financial support, licit and illicit, with redistributed wealth. The bottom line is that you can't cheat your way to honesty any more than you can borrow your way out of debt or screw your way to virginity.
