Rights to Keep What One Earns. Gene and his coworkers have been talking over lunch about how their taxes have continued to rise. Some complain that the harder they work, the less they are making. Others are upset because their taxes are going to pay for things that they do not believe the government should support with our tax dollars- the arts, for example. "Why should we support museums or arts programs in public schools when we don't use these services?" they ask. They argue these should be matters for charity. They also complain that they work hard but that their income is being used to take care of others who could work but do not.
Are they right? Why or why not?
