		 I see what ace is getting at, and, for the most part, I agree.  
 
I'll tell you very simply I do believe in a safety net, but outside of that people deserve to keep what they earn. I don't know that I would go so far as to say that a completely free market should determine the value of ones contribution, after all we are talking about a market that must, logically, then value a fourth string receiver for the Miami Dolphins more than bank tellers and teachers. However, if we are talking about a market that will tolerate some measured regulation then it can be trusted to reward participation correctly.
