Jude 2

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. 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. 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 any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers , 1931 to 2005

But you might be pre-supposing there are those who care what the working half thinks......they just keep "going and going and going.....

The sad thing about this country is the "elite" know that if you give the majority of the country beer and football, they will dutifully get up and go to work at whatever so they can see the next big play........sad times.
