All About Wealth---this is as good as I have ever seen it said:
You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
The government cannot give anything that it does not first take from someone.
You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.
For what one person receives without working, another person must work without receiving.
When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for ........................ that my dear friend, is about the end of a nation.
Excellent post, Frank...And, what it amounts to is the beginning of Socialism, which is where O seems to be pushing us. Amazing, isn't it. We've existed for 232 years as the greatest human experiment ever to be seen in modern day man...And it would be nice to think that the American public will wake up from its misplaced euphoria in time to prevent our way of life from being stripped from us permenently.
