Rest In Peace, Harry.
“A free and prosperous society has no fear of anyone entering it. But a welfare state is scared to death of every poor person who tries to get in and every rich person who tries to get out.”
That’s because a free society attracts the best and rewards their efforts that produce success.
While a welfare state attracts the worst, the deadbeats and dependents with no real ambition, and drives the successful out.
You get more of what you reward and less of what you punish, this has been a known rule of animal behavior -including human- for a long time now.
