:::Why is it nonsense? If the rich give their money to the poor through charity, isn't that voluntary income redistribution? Doesn't the existence of voluntary income redistrubution make involuntary redistrubution look that much more insidious? [[User:Ungtss|Ungtss]] 16:56, 19 August 2007 (EDT)

:::My friend, I'm no Marxist, and i'm not in favor of an equal economic outcome for all people, but if we don't accurately portray the bases for belief, how can we debunk them? [[User:Ungtss|Ungtss]] 16:56, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
:As to the Ayn Rand material, all of it in CP needs to be reviewed. None of it appears accurate. Rand is being presented as saying a person born with a disability can starve to death, or a 75 year old unable to work likewise can perish. Until some balance is at least strived for, I intend to remove it all. [[User:RobS|Rob Smith]] 15:07, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
