I didn't say socialism, I said fairness. I, for one, believe that I have better things to spend my time on than acquiring $1M and all that goes with that.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

No one seeks to destroy the rich, that's their factious argument.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

No one is weakening the strong, we should, however empower every human being to be able to pursue, "life, liberty and happiness", instead of taking that possibility away.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

How does fairness discourage thrift?

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down

Ok..we should let Richard S. Fuld Jr. keep his $300M. God knows he needs it.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

No need to hate a fox.....you just keep him from stealing your chickens.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence.

Exactly

You cannot help men permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.

Lincoln is correct there. Let's march on Washington.

"Sorry, the utopia promised only failed due to man's inherent corruptness."

So your answer is leave it that way, rofl. You must think all of us are idiots.

Love of money and power is a disease and should not be aspired to but pitied.





____________It's Time to March on Washington._____________
