But it is not the job of government to redistribute wealth... That is an invention of the liberal left. The American constitution is an example of what a government should do.

The Preamble of the constitution lays out what an ideal government should do:

Quote
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

I don't think he was reading the Constitution when he came to this realization.

The job of the government is to protect freedoms.

The scary thing for me is that they don't just want to redistribute the wealth in America, they want to redistribute it throughout the world, so everyone is brought down to the same low standard of living.
