That allegory is incorrect.
Sharing your GPA is not the same as sharing wealth to provide basic human neccessities to everybody in America.
We do have wealth sharing available to every American.
It's called a job.
It's called free education.
People may be poor and hurting temporarily due to circumstance, and I do feel an obligation to help those folks.
However, those who just expect a hand-out, I feel no obligation to hand out anything other than the question, so what are you doing about your issues?
Did you drop out of school, start smoking crack, etc. Ok, those were your choices, so stop trying to take money from my pocket, go back to school, and see about getting yourself clean, straight, smart and employed.
