You cannot multiply wealth
"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. 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"Dr Adrian Rodgers

I am glad his son is carrying on the word.
Yep some people just hate the rich because they have money
I do realize though all countries do not have a structure to help folk just help to keep them down
I walked 6 miles this morning for nothing other than feel good factor
you to have a great poor or rich weekend
My aim in life has always been to get into a rich Western country and become their citizen so that I can sit back and relax and receive a cheque every month!
The robot you goes out and does everything you wouldn't want to do anyway and where does doing what you want to do in life fit in with Dr Rodgers logic of the Great Depression?
Go walking feel earth beneath your feet, look at the birds flying and life at its basics, then join the rat race then go walking again, gives you a different aspect of the maze of our lives
And yes to Luke's post. One can't multiply wealth by dividing it. I believe that happiness is the only thing that multiplies when divided. Just look at the idea of socialism and its reality. Poor people when harangued by the idea of no rich nor poor society would readily succumb and rise against the govt and the rich. I just think everybody shld strive to die even one half notch better than the day one was born. Greed, jealousy,and discontent, if only these traits aren't known to mankind. Speaking of discontent. Ouch because Iam planning to change jobs out for all reasons, discontent. Quite funny, eh? Happy weekend, though!
But does your Government 'silently' or 'indirectly' encourage those that invade homes, farms etc? I don't think so.
Here committing murder will get you 5 or 6 years in jail but other crimes far less serious and depending on who you are might get you 10 to 15 years effectively.
The law system is rotten with the criminals having far more rights than the victim.
off-limits for everyone he was caught by chopper flying by with his entire family
sitting at the same beach he closed down.
Reagan was a cowboy wearing a white hat. The crooks always wore black hats. Haha
One could always tell who was the good or bad guys. When I was a kid I loved those movies...
I want 2 of those .....Please organize something for me when you worked this out, 2 cheques is always better than one....

So true.
Easy! Just a find an unsuspecting man ( in my case ), whisper sweet nothings to him and shower him with sweet kisses and yes, all these can be done via Skype. Virtual love is feasible in case you think otherwise
Some guys just go a lil too far.
And the stats show its climbing. Have a good week bro. I'm off.
In shops where there may have had 20 tillers all paying taxes to fund our services, soon there will be automated tillers which won't pay any taxes, and 20 more unemployed people.
Maybe we have to look at the whole system.
