We've entered an era of "Don't I get a stimulus check this year?" And if people are not smart enough to realize that the accumulation of personal wealth should be based on a combination of hard work and a decent intellect, instead of looking for others to pay their way, then Socialism is not far away.
The Obama philosophy: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.......Shame Karl Marx said it first.  |
Very insightful! I have a sister-in-law waiting on a stimulus check that is not forthcoming. My retired parents got a check for $500.00 as a stimulus. However, like most, this will go for medication as medicare sucks. At any rate, my sister-in-law already has this non-existent check spent! Go figure, she is over year behind in her mortgage as well and is waiting on someone to pay for it....
