“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.”
