Understanding how the system works creates opportunities in and of itself. A mechanic is a difficult target for a car salesman to off load a lemon. The proper understanding of financial markets and wealth creation prevents the social liberal the champion of poverty, the great equalizer by law. The social robin hood may be the greatest threat to the poor possibly even a greater threat than anything else. Europe is a wonderful example of the economy of do Gooding. Nothing is funnier than watching socialists scream for capitalistic policy and austerity measures. When the people can vote for a living and live solely to do so you know what happens? France, greece, italy, and so on.
I would rather create my own wealth than spend my time attempting to legally steal the wealth of others. A person who engages in such activity is not a righteous force of charity but a nuisance and pest. They are the victims of not understanding that stifling wealth creation creates more beggars than wealth creation does.
