"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves."
Abraham Lincoln

Really? I was beginning to think socialism really was the answer. Oh wait, that's just the ignorant Conservative side of me shining through. Go ahead. Hate me. Apparenlty the majority of Liberals do.
Amen!! I guess people are the same no matter what Era. Someone (or many) always trying to control the masses.
Socialism, nationalism religion...I think they are all the same. It's all about power (control) and money.
