Tax the rich
Feed the poor
til there are no rich no more
(total non-sequitor alert)I'd love to turn you on...
(it ought to be)and then the poor will starve anyway...
Don't give em a fish. Teach them to fish. If they refuse to learn...oh well, let em starve.
That was the “Ten years after” song that Kickass Conservative mentioned upthread.
My boss came from Africa 30 years ago - escaping from a dictator. Our government tried to get him to take a job as a dishwasher because the pay was low enough that he could still get benefits. He refused this and was told he could just have his family on benefits and he said no...no benefits. He worked 2 jobs, went to school, and now is my boss at a Fortune 500 company and has accomplished children with degrees and good lives. He told me the other day that there are people who came here the same time he did are still on benefits and working at the same very low level jobs. My boss finds this shocking and disgusting.
