Without
the burden of over taxation or over regulation, American’s
are rewarded for their hard work and doing their best. Redistribution
of wealth is counterproductive and rewards negative behavior.
Our Founding Fathers would not have accepted it, nor should
we.
“The
national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be
reduced; the arrogance of authorities must be moderated
and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be
reduced if the nation doesn’t want to go bankrupt.
People must again learn to work instead of living on public
assistance.” Cicero, Roman Empire 55 BC
Cicero
knew it over 2000 years ago. Our current elected public
servants still have not figured it out.
In these economic times across the country businesses are
downsizing, consolidating and reducing expenses or are going
out of business.
Our
government is expanding and spending our money like never
before in history. They continue to raise taxes and fees
while creating new taxes and fees.
Government
arrogance and corruption is out of control. Our elected
public servants should be held to a higher standard and
more accountability.
“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 friends, is about the end of any
nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!”
Dr. Adrian Rogers
A
Socialized society has never been successful.
