    How true.....!

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

    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.

    There is a number 6 and it comes from Maggie Thatcher *: Socialism fails when it runs out of other people's money!

    Can you think of a reason for not sharing this?

    Neither could I......

        too true.
        Quote from Eleanor Roosevelt:
        ''Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people''
        Not really to do with much but i like it!

          Absolutely correct... the socialist experiment this country has been subjected to, courtesy of the previous labour government, has well and truly ****ed us.

              I like this one by Sir Winston Churchill:

              "We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
              If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

              -CQ 3b "S2".
