Are you saying that any government redistribution is unhealthy? That seems a little extreme.

  I read it more as "it's unhealthy when, in the absence of government redistribution, some people are starving on the streets while others are making more money than God." Which I would think is an even bigger indictment of what we've got now, since we already have a moderate amount of government redistribution, but still have people starving in the streets and others making more money than God.

    To expect nobody to starve in the absence of government redistribution, you'd have to be quite optimistic about private charity or voluntary community provision. For example, some people are born severely disabled. Others can't hold a job down. Not everybody saves enough for retirement. Etc.
