Huh. I thought it was the much more simple argument of:
"Everyone needs to contribute because we're in this together, you're selfish for wanting what you produce" vs "half the country doesn't pay for anything and government is wasteful" argument that was dividing us. I'm glad to hear it's the complexity of the arguments, not the core viewpoints they represent, that are the source all the bitterness and ugliness we face.
