I know this was not your intention, but you make sound like wealthy people's lives are more valuable than others. The more you have, the more you have to be defended? If you're dead, you're dead! Leaving behind $millions of property vs. a $90,000 3/2 house is irrelevant, ain't it?

No, I think every American needs to pay for and support National Defense, since we all benefit equally from it.
