FIVE BEST SENTENCES



1. You cannot legislate the poor into
prosperity, by legislating the wealthy 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!



Can you think of a reason for not sharing this?
Neither could I.
