Would it be moral to grade exams, so that all students get C’s?
If not, is it moral for the state to redistribute incomes. Of course this is not ok. Nor is it moral. The idea of taking from the people who earned it and giving it to people who didn’t is simply put, stealing. If 4 students got A’s but the rest got B’s why is it ok to redistribute the A’s to everybody, if they did not earn it. It is immoral, wrong, and is stealing. The same goes for redistributing incomes. The whole reason a person gets an income is because they work for it. They put in the hours, and they do their job. So why would taking their money and giving it to someone else be okay. It is stealing.
Redistribution is just wrong, because hard earned money is lost. People who then don’t do anything, take it. Which is even worse. Taking money from those who earned it is theft. That is like somebody stealing money from a lemonade stand, the people worked to get it, but they still stole. This is also socialism, which is a system designed to fail. Any country which has tried socialism has failed miserably. Venezuela is a great example of how socialism destroyed the country. Lastly, this will DE-incentivise people as all of their earning are being ripped from them. What would be the point of working, if it was all going to go to somebody else. So not only is it immoral, it also is a great way to destroy the economy and DE-incentivse people.
