Politics

  • You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
  • What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
  • The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
  • You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!
  • 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 is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Each statement is 100% accurate, and historically demonstrated to be so, time after time.

Anyone want to send me money and cut out the middle man?

Stephen Hayes on 7/19/2012 said...

History has shown time and time again that when the Middle Class fails to prosper and wealth is consolidated into the hands of a select few, the society is doomed.

alluding to the last comment, it also destroys innovation. Sad.

All you need to do to see the results of all this is Europe, and the problems they have. Or wait until next year and watch it in your own back yard. Wise sayings, Sandee.

Wise words. I also wish those rich folks who make multi millions per years started to pay as much tax as me, instead of doing whatever they can to pay as little tax as possible.
