Take the money, Harry.

Jim, Harry should take the money. As Ayn Rand said, "Don't let your morality be used against you."
I believe in the philosophy of law. As long as it's legal, each person can take whatever he is legally entitled to from the government's stolen money, as long as he/she doesn't ADVOCATE that the coercive tax system be retained. Many will not take grants, or welfare, but they are legally entitled to it. As for the moral entitlement, that is a matter for them to work out for themselves. After all, we have to drive on government (tax supported) roads, etc. Tonie
