THE TRUTH ABOUT A WELFARE STATE and ITS FAILURE AS A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT

The following was emailed to me by a friend. I am unsure as to his source, but the truth of it is very revealing. While I do agree that society/the Church should assist those who are aged and disabled, the Bible does tell us that those who refuse to work should not be allowed to sponge off of society or the Church (2 Thessalonians 3:8 -10).  Upon this principle, if one is able-bodied and on welfare he/she should have to work to receive such benefits - even if it means picking up garbage off the sidewalks or side of the roads.

STATEMENT AT THE END SAYS IT ALL !!!!! make sure you read it

66 years later!


What happened to the radiation that

Hiroshima - 1945

HIROSHIMA - 65 YEARS LATER

DETROIT- 65 YEARS AFTER HIROSHIMA

What has caused more long term destruction - the A-bomb,
                                   or
Government welfare programs created to buy the votes of those who want someone to take care of them?

Japan does not have a welfare system.  Work for it or do without.

These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read on welfare and all are applicable to this social experiment:

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

5. 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 is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? .........Neither could I.
