“The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower becomes the lender's slave.” Proverbs 22:7
“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. 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 about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”— The late Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931-2005
Do you really believe our forefathers intended the Federal Government to rule over the people? It has always been about the people - “We the people...”
Right now we are about to put our children’s future on the line and enslave them to the government. America has been the land of opportunity because people could come and have the chance to succeed. Nobody has the right to prosper at the expense of someone else! It’s not government’s job to ensure everyone prospers – it is government’s job to ensure that everyone has the same opportunity. We need to pray for our leaders - that they will seek a higher wisdom.
