Left-wing social policies sicken our behavior and corrupt our culture. People bend principles and sacrifice integrity to get as much as they can from the government. Giveaway programs encourage every imaginable sort of cheating and dishonesty. Wheeling and dealing in food stamps is a way of life. Lying and fraud are commonplace. Whenever you're dependent on the money, the end justifies the means.

If everyone had to start up their own business, socialism would soon die.

Worry not so much about other peoples morals but more about your own.

Money could never have originated as paper.

Our contemporary brand of socialism has one fatal flaw. It's too expensive. When you try to shower benefits on so many recipients, you eventually must resort to subterfuge. Foremost among those tricks is money and credit expansion. Inevitably, you debase your currency.

To use ones religion as a rationalization for lack of financial success demeans that faith.

That which you worry about most in life is seldom bad, and that likely applies to dying.
