Unless they somehow managed to abolish scarcity and there are now unlimited supplies of iron, bricks, steel, wood, cotton,..., vegetables, meat and teachers that are willing to work for free, your statement implies that you are OK with the state taking away the property of some (people who have earned it) to give it away to others.
Not only is that an act of aggression, from an economic point of view it also leads to a destruction of capital in society.
