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 friend, is about the end of any nation. You : cannot multiply wealth by dividing it." : : ~~~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers , 1931 to 2005, Former Pastor of Bellevue : Baptist Church in Memphis , TN ~~~ ________________________________
