A chemistry professor in a large college had some exchange students
in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Professor
noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back,
and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student
told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while
fighting communists in his native country who were trying to
overthrow his country's government and install a new communist government.
In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a
strange question. He asked, 'Do you know how to catch wild pigs?'
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line.
The young man said this was no joke. 'You catch wild pigs by finding
a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The
pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free corn. When
they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of
the place where they are used to coming.
When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again
and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and
start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of
the fence up with a gate in The last side. The pigs, who are used to
the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the
gate on them and catch the whole herd.
Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and
around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to
eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have
forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept
their captivity.
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees
happening to America. The government keeps pushing us toward
socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of
programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned
income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant
crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc.. While we continually
lose our freedoms -- just a little at a time.
One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free lunch!
Also, a politician will never provide a service for you cheaper than
you can do it yourself.
'A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big
enough to take away everything you have.' *
