re: One could read it differently...
I was primarily making a joke, but you have some good points.
"Hoarding is bad. Generosity is good. Give to those who need it because we are supposed to take care of each other. No one should ever go hungry, remain ignorant, be naked or homeless to preserve someone else's profit."
Not bad. Again, I think the primary gap in our political spectrum involves means, not ends.
One side believes generosity has an exact meaning. The other side thinks it takes a gun. I don't think anyone is arguing about the ends.
