"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."

That's a good quote, but .. The wealthy have legislated
themselves out of their freedom by selling their freedom to foreign
nations, mostly in Asia.They cannot undo that move, because they
already lost their power. That's the true price of betrayal. The
payment for that betrayal is yet to come. The poor will share it as
well, as they let the wealthy to go about their business of selling
freedom. There is no way to fix the process until the remittance is
over.
