OK part 2: IF you believe we have God-given talents, wouldn't it be at least fair to say that at least a portion of the monetary benefits of these skills be given to the less fortunate? Or even 10% of our time? Agape.

I disagree. You can take all the worlds wealth and split it evenly among all people and the people that were rich will be rich again and the people who were poor will be poor again in just a few months - years. Rich and poor is just a mindset. You either have it or you don't. Pl.us, who would collect the 10% and who would distribute the 10% and would it be 10% from everyone in the entire world or just America? There are too many questions on this one that come up.

How does giving money to the poor help the poor?? - When the money is used up -- they are poor again -- The reason they are poor is becuase they dont know how to turn the money they have into more money - (like rich people do). Why give them more incentive to keep making unwise decisions.
and why why why do people like you keep thinking that redistribution of wealth is a healthy thing for a country -- have you seen what it has done to COUNTLESS countries --
And how do you justify forcing everyone who has worked for their money to give some of it to people who havent worked for it.
How do you call stealing, Love?

sadly it wont work this way.
if the poor had more money then the merchants would raise prices
and the poor would still have no buying power.

no, i need my 10%. those stupid b*stards could just get jobs themselves and then they would really appretiate the money. unless they're babies. i love babies. they're so cute and smelly. so, poor babies can have 5%, but no more and only them .
