Socialism...free stuff for those who didn't earn it themselves.
Reminds me of something I read by a pastor Richard Huis (retired).
WORK
"Only stupid people work." These words came from the mouth of an able-bodied twenty-three-year-old, who lives off anyone who will provide for him. Another comment made by an eighteen-year-old was "I don't believe in work." From what I hear on the street, this seems to be the attitude of the younger generation, though I hope it is not true. However, it is these comments that inspire me to write in relation to Labor Day.
"I was born to work," could well be my motto. Born and reared on a farm in Michigan, it seemed that there was nothing but work from sunrise to sunset most of the year. I never knew what a vacation was, only an occasional trip to the village ice-cream parlor, church on Sunday, and, when lucky, a couple of hours of fishing on a local lake. So now, when I hear that only the stupid work, I wonder about my past and future. Is this the world I now live in?
My upbringing was with the Bible, Where one of the very first commandments was to "til the garden." In other words, it was to work. Genesis 2:10
When I reflect on this word, work, and its implications, it seems that God intended to give purpose and value in working. Of course, there are many approaches to work as well as questions. Is work a privilege? Is it an opportunity? Is it necessary? Is it a mandate, a duty, even a commandment? Is it only for survival? I have read that eighty percent of the people. who go to work each day, h**e it. I wonder why? For many to whom I minister - the retired, incarcerated and handicapped often tell me that they wished they had something to do. They want to feel useful, wanted, even creative. There seems to be a spiritual longing to act on that first commandment, "to til."
This is best summed up by a poet and songwriter, Maltbie Babcock, in his poem, Be Strong: "We are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard work to do, and loads to lift; Shun not the struggle---face it; 'tis God's gift."

Only the godless c*******ts and their brethren socialists would think otherwise.
But let's hear from a (liberal) l*****t.
