…to our problems, government is the problem.” A wise man once said.
This is an excellent video.

Typical socialist babble that doesn’t equate to reality.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong
You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away man’s initiative and independence.
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income.
You cannot establish security on borrowed money.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they will not do for themselves.
Thanks for playing though.
exactly: the cartoon version.
I’m glad you understood.
I added to my comment probably as you replied.
So I’ll throw it here too.

That missive that you linked to seems to have the same theme as most liberal diatribe, pull at the heart strings to get an emotional reaction.
it wasn’t for fact or argument just for fun.
it really is not meant as a challenge, it is a simple fable after all.
all metaphors are deeply flawed / imperfect.
i was trying to be balanced (did you read the whole thing?), but it is so hard to hide our bias. i was just curious if someone with a different point of view (one of certainty) would enjoy it.
thank you for your thoughtful response.
I misread the intent at first, so the harsh response came out before I had time to digest and finish the metaphor. My apologies.
Your response was much more thoughtful than mine.
Thank you. Wow. I have really enjoyed ths exchange.
Same here. It shows I’m flawed and can admit it.
Thanks for dropping by.
