Well let's see, the government can take from the people through taxes, which is one reason I support a smaller government, but since no rich & powerful person has his hand in my wallet (the local courts have their hand in my wallet getting $200 just because I like to speed a little, which reminds me I have to go pay them tomorrow), you'll have to give me an example where one of these rich and powerful people has become rich by taking money from the people.
