Dr Adrian Rogers, 1931-2005 gave these statements some years back . . .
You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out
of prosperity.
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 the beginning of the end of any
nation.
You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
