One cannot defend, by any rational economic or moral argument, the position of wealth redistribution.

When one tries to argue that taking wealth away from the person who produced it and giving it to the person that did not produce it is somehow "good," one is trying to argue that theft is good.

Those who benefit (or hope to benefit) from "wealth redistribution" will create all sorts of convoluted arguments about how the theft is "good," but when you decipher their banter you just find emotions like jealousy, anger and the desire for more than what they have earned.

Yep.
