Well who really deserves it? I mean who's work is truly better than another? Hell to be honest in academics GPA is a piece of crap. Different majors are harder than others yet we are all graded on the same system. Some majors are way easier. For example a student in the physical sciences can have a 3.3 GPA and be the smartest person at the school while an English major gets a 4.0 and makes the deans list and gets the scholarships.

@jboreing agreed, they're not the same for that reason, but it's still the same concept because with a high GPA you can get a better job and thus a better income to feed those hungry mouths.
-
@jboreing Is is the same concept. Taking something earned by one and giving it to someone who has not earned. You can apply this concept (take from the haves and give to the have nots) accross just about every human eneavour.
-
@jboreing What do you call it then?? Taking the fruits of ones labor by force and giving it to someone else is akin to slavery.

@tmoallen Under our current legislation income tax is not theft. We are also talking about human lives. Republicans seem to be pro-life until the child is born, then they have no right to have the basic starting point that our country can afford. If we allow Donald Trump to walk around in golden boxers, while the child living at the foot of his tower starves, we would have to change our name to Africa.

@jboreing So what you are trying to say is: People use money to buy food, therefore money should be stolen from others. Is that about right?
-
They aren't the same because one is GPA and the other is not. Oh ok, never heard of a concept.
-
This is great I love it. God Bless these students for making a point of redistribution of wealth.

This video is stupid. The two are not the same. You don't buy food for your children with GPA. This is not a fair comparison. IT IS NOT THE SAME CONCEPT. All of the people in this video are in school already. Not everyone works for their money, many inherit large estates. I am tired of this analogy.

The main problem I have with the argument is that in academics certain behavior is rewarded with relative consistency. If you do well on exams and assignments you will have a good GPA.
Economic rewards don't work the same way. There is no such simple relation with money, other than perhaps the idea that if you work hard you probably wont end up on the streets. Our economy does not necessarily rewards those who deserve it most. So we shouldn't pretend that things are so fair to begin with.
And so whatever money anyone earns, I don't care how rich one is, is his money by right, and no one has the right to take it. All taxation is theft. Fuck you socialists.
