Americans Want To Have Their Cake And Eat It, Too

Gallup is out with a poll on how Americans Oppose Income Redistribution to Fix Economy:

When given a choice about how government should address the numerous economic difficulties facing today's consumer, Americans overwhelmingly -- by 84% to 13% -- prefer that the government focus on improving overall economic conditions and the jobs situation in the United States as opposed to taking steps to distribute wealth more evenly among Americans.

Ms. Think wonders: how can the government finance the steps it would need to take to improve overall economic conditions and the jobs situation? Ms. Think sends out an open challenge to anyone to demonstrate how any possible government action, apart from repeal of all economic legislation and establishment of laissez-faire capitalism, could possibly be done without "distributing wealth more evenly among Americans" through taxation and other seizures of private property.
