Some people like to share, some don't.

the difference is that Left-wingers want to force everyone to pay for stuff that they believe is right.

right wingers do too, but not as much.

And Libertarians want you to spend your money on whatever you want.

I guess that explains the overwhelming public support for the last administration's enormous military expenditures. Oh, wait...

Your links below are from a conservative hit piece. The author gave little and sometimes no background on how he came to the numbers, and tended to ignore numbers that did not support his views and pick and choose which numbers would support his cause in the book.

There is no real evidence either gives more or less.

However, what liberals do is support programs which make it possible to pull oneself out of poverty, while conservative support cutting programs which do such, which effectively would lead to a permanent surf class.

So even should conservatives give someone a fish, they would do better to teach them to fish, or at least keep in place the liberal leftist programs that do so.

Fair enough but in my opinion that many of these programs have the opposite effect... they keep people in poverty rather than pulling them out.
