...And less free.
Forcing people to pay money for other people's unwillingness to get a job, no matter how rich the person, is wrong. It's Robin Hood economics. Spreading the wealth around not only takes tons more money from the rich, but it gives one the impression that there's really no point in trying to advance to make more money if the government will just tax you more for whatever you make.
