Careful what you wish for..............

"Throughout history, soaking the rich has proven a quick fix to temporary emergencies and crises, like the one we are facing today.  But it is inevitably a fix that comes with a high cost.  By undermining the taboo against expropriating wealth, it makes all private property less secure, including the property of the middle class."

- Lee Harris, as excerpted from his essay, Why Not Soak the Rich?

I'd like to credit the sender of the link, but........I forget.  Sorry
