Liberals love the labels

They try to associate wealth with some sort of arbitrary Justice principal. It’s as if they believe because you are wealthy, someone else is robbed of their potential to become wealthy and that’s just not the case

America provides the best landscape ever known to prosper

We ought not feel guilty about that

Those are completely subjective and therefore useless terms.

Fair share is another example. Who gets to define “fair” in that context is what matters.

We should redistribute the wealth of those advocating for wealth redistribution to third world countries.

He routinely violated the clean air act and endangered the health of thousands of people. That is unjust.


The clean air act is unjust and designed to take more of our money and redistribute it to folks in DC and their cronies.

making the concepts of "fairness" or "justice" meaningless when applied to it

This was called the 'no bright line' argument long ago. You cannot claim your policy is justified due to 'fairness' because it cannot be quantified. IE, how much more fair is your policy than the status quo?
