[Rhodes22-list] Politics continued - John misleader on W.E.B. DuBois

[Brad Haslett]

Ed,

"They fail because they kill individual initiative.  People are smart enough
to see that if they do not have to work for sustenance and medical care,
then they do not work.  You cannot provide ascribed benefits out of air."

Ed my friend, truer words have never been spoken!  Welcome to Katrina Land.
"Manna falls from heaven and somehow I'm not responsible for my suffering!"
You are!

Life is tough!  It helps if you have a supportive family.  It helps even
more if you have a supportive government.  However, comma, a government that
can give you everything can take everything away.

Ask Mr. Shen.  Mr. Shen of CoraShen, the sailing vessel.

Brad
