Have to agree with JohnnyD on this one.

Besides, we do have a serious infrastructure problem in this country. Even if tax revenues did go towards civil projects, everybody benefits in the end, and the rich benefit more as they can exploit the improved infrastructure as it makes trade and business easier.

I don't think this could be reasonably called redistribution of wealth.
