“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the industrious out of it. You don’t multiply wealth by dividing it. Government cannot give anything to anybody that it doesn’t first take from somebody else. Whenever somebody receives something without working for it, somebody else has to work for it without receiving.
The worst thing that can happen to a nation is for half of the people to get the idea they don’t have to work because somebody else will work for them, and the other half to get the idea that it does no good to work because they don’t get to enjoy the fruits of their labor.”

Does this QUOTE OF THE DAY represent the prevailing philosophy of this site? Whoever wrote it is a member of the 0.1% who think the exponentially growing inequality that is now an undeniable fact of life is proof that God loves people in proportion to their net worth. It is based on a monetary theory that is fraudulent but propagated madly by those whose net worth increases while they sleep, play golf, consume haute cuisine, tell the poor to “get a job!”, or twiddle their thumbs.
Anyone who has studied the work of economist Michael Hudson has discovered the truth about unfettered capitalism. And whoever originated the aphorism, “Behind every great fortune lies a great crime.” knew the truth. The fact is it doesn’t have to be this way.
It is the philosophy of this website. Looks like we’ve attracted a government loving socialist libtard who doesn’t understand math or the concept of liberty and personal responsibility. You blame your failures in life on the monolithic 0.1% who have kept you from succeeding. I suggest you go back to Huffington Post and rail about the unfairness of life while wearing a vagina hat.
Jerry,
Go get a job and quit living off of me!
Looks like a new Lib-Prog-Commie Troll has joined the site.
Jerry, if every time you went out to eat, the waiter brought you your check AND the check for five other tables you would refuse to pay. If every time you went to your doctor, they presented you with your bill and five other patient’s bill demanding payment before you leave, you would refuse to pay. But LET THE GOVERNMENT rob the producers in this country to pay the tab and you think it ever so fukkin noble.
Jerry is either on the dole sponging money of the back of working schmucks or he is the worst kind of libtard maroon that is ruining this country. Hey Jerry, can I send some of my bills for you to pay this month? Come on Jerry, just pick up the utility and grocery bills for me. You are a FRAUD and a idiot not to see the truth in this excellent quote of the day. GFY
You people are either uneducated in economics or you are fools. I won’t be following this site any longer. 3 days was enough to see what you’re about.
One post was enough to see what you are about.
Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
If I were the Curator of Comments for TBP, methinks I would place Admin’s April 2, 2017 at 9:42 am response into the Snowflake-Slam Hall of Fame.
Here, here on that!
JL is a prime example just why we cannot live with these people. There is just no living with them. They need to live with each other and suffer their own consequences, but not destroy us.
