Ahh, yes ... .there's the Robin Hood thingie again. Progressives are so fond of that little story of how Robin Hood stole from the rich in order to give to the poor. The truth is, Robin Hood stole from the government (The King) in order to return to the poor, the usurious taxes the King had extracted by force at the point of an arrow. Today, the Conservatives (Robin Hood) are still trying to return the taxes ... the only difference is, today taxes are taken at the point of a gun instead of an arrow.
