Part of being a free country, is the freedom to be an asshole. I get the right to take the results of my efforts, and do whatever the hell I want with them.

That simply isn't true. Everyone in our society is dependent on other people. Who built the university where you got your education, who built the road that connects your property to the economy, who desposes of your waste products, who came up with the idea for electric light bulbs, or processed food, or a drinkable water supply, or the process by which your clothes were produced, and the list goes on and on.
For any person to think that the fruits they reap are solely from their own efforts is a fool, and they should go live in the jungle where their actions no longer have a negative effect on the rest of us, and society's positive actions no longer benefit them. Welcome to civilization, founded 7000 BC.

Well we each feel the other to be a fool, so continuing is just... well... foolish.
All I can do is shake my head that that post, and say wow... Nothing more to say really.

All I can do is feel sorry for you, or better yet feel sorry for the society in which you live in since you are not beneficial to it.
Tell me, did you earn everything that you accomplished in life all by yourself? Did you invent the computer you are typing on right now, did you invent the heating system that keeps you warm in winter, did you invent the refrigerator that keeps your food cold, and so forth?

No, however I rewarded the people who did, by paying them. No one gave me a computer, or a refrigerator. I earned them.
You can feel sorry for me all you want, but the people that get to eat due to my donations like me very much. I feel sorry for anyone who wants to live in a world where all there efforts are taken away from them, because they agree others know better what to do with them.
