> I wouldn't accept your labor nor your property voluntarily, let alone seize it.

And what of the labor and property of lawyers, doctors, investment bankers, Silicon Valley multimillionaires? You're going to have a hard time delivering and paying for all the promises and investments you wrote of if you're picky about who you're willing to take from.

> Enjoy how you choose to spend your resources, I know how I want to spend mine.

That, my friend, is individual liberty. I'm glad that despite your vitriol, you seem to agree that it's a wonderful thing.

One modest suggestion, however: you shouldn't presume to know how others spend their resources. A person you're quick to curse as cold-hearted might be far more charitable than you ever imagined, and, in both relative and absolute terms, perhaps far more charitable than you.

Cheers.
