What a profound short little paragraph that says it all!!! "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 anybodyanything 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, 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." ~~~~~ Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931
Short, profound, correct and written 80 years ago.
What would the good Dr. say today.
