"Entrepreneurs do something useful carrying the risk of running their business." Correct. Entrepreneurs take risks for their business, but they also cover all the COSTS of the business too. Unless you are implying that costs are part of the risks, I think you should explicitly talk about the costs they pay for business too. They pay for machinery, they pay their workers, they pay for many other things. But talking about these things would not fit your statist agenda. Unsuccessful entrepreneurs should not get help from the state. The reason why they are unsuccessful can be changed. Getting dependent on the government when you can change what makes your business unsuccessful is stupid. If a business fails and it gets handouts from the "state" the handout will more than likely make the business suceptible to cronyism. Corporate cronyism. Workers who do not have a job and who really want a job can find then. Even if it is not a job which is paid a lot. This can be temporary and he can climb the hierarchical ladder, if he persists in his endeavours. If a person really wants a job and does not find one, he probably is just saying that.

Fuck your progressive tax. Taxation is theft. If the progressive tax were voluntary, I would agree. But your tax is backed by force. So fuck it.
