I'm torn between the two sides of this mindset. On the one had, what you says is true, if you cant protect whats yours there is a chance you wont keep it. On the other hand, I know that people who take what they haven't worked for is destined to live a life of suffering because the world is created by people who build things that make a difference. The people who take and cannot create for themselves are doomed to live a apathetic existence. That is not a life worth living for me. I think I would rather be taken from then to always have to sacrifice metal/emotional stability every time I steal something that is not mine.



It's not black and white. I can build and take. Taking allows me to build faster and better. Look at Rome.
