One big idea promoted by socialism is sharing. But sharing (as I talked about in my post today) assumes ownership. You can't share a thing without first owning it. I don't think socialists simply want to steal from others because they don't have good prospects. I think many of them make a logical error in defining the act of sharing. And yes, sharing is benevolent and noble, good for your soul, and even economically beneficial to you. But socialists don't mind forced sharing, which misses the point entirely and turns what could be shared into something stolen.
