Absolutely agree. As Karl Marx said, "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs"
As I have said elsewhere I am really enjoying the free market ideologues swallowing in their pride and embracing socialism to maintain the status quo. They definitely don't want a revolution.
Of course when the time comes to pay for all this largesse they will revert to type and sting the poor with austerity measures.
When times are good the rich are rewarded with tax cuts when times are bad the poor pay with welfare and service cuts. It's the way the world works at the moment.
