If you steal from the successful and distribute the money to the unsuccessful, there is no motivation for hard work, therefore everyone ends up equally poor, not equally rich. The only people who come out ahead are the elite, who are perfectly happy to skim off the top while they tell everyone else what they should be thinking.

You can certainly teach about communism, but teaching communism as a valid worldview is totally retarded. Hasn't California already been screwed up enough?

As a mother of a retarded son, I really don't like the comparison, Theodore. Retarded is not interchangeable with stupid, ridiculous, ludicrous, moronic, etc.
