5 very profound sentences

[ppkheat]

These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read:

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

5. 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.

Number 5 is where this country is right now - thanks obama, you worthless sob.

Yes, my thoughts exactly.

[Bumper]

All very true and, I agree, the fifth one is where we are now. I also agree that Obama is a worthless SOB that, hopefully, will be past history in the next election. Best he stay up there in Illinois....

unfortunately this isn't just a "thank obama" situation. As much as I detest the SOB, it's not the full picture. The full picture is worse than #5 itself because that "half"/50% representation I believe is...short. I suspect it's more like 60+% now that are quite content to live as moochers and looters. All natural born parasites. Otherwise, oboob woudn't have had all the support he got prior to election, wouldn't have been elected in the first place, and wouldn't still have all the support of his fellow parasites.

Obama is just the sum of decades of corruption.

Probably so, but do you really believe that the Repubs will undo the damage he has done when they take over? I don't.

Let's just say I HOPE they do. I'm not, however, confident that they will....

Where we are at right now:

Its too Late to fix Washington,
and too Early to shoot the bastards!

[downrange]

Now, if only we could forward it to the white house, not that it would do much good, but it would be nice to shove it in their faces to realize most of us aren't stupid.
