“You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anyone anything without first first taking it from someone else.
When half of the people get the idea that they don’t have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and 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.”
Adrian Pierce Rogers (Sep 12, 1931 – Nov 15, 2005)
American pastor, conservative, author and a three-term president of the Southern Baptist Convention (1979-1980 and 1986-1988).
Kind of sums it up pretty clearly, doesn’t it?
