Time for ALL to Give Back Something to society.

Spot on!

First, let me preface my comment by saying I am NOT without compassion. There are those in our nation who are need of assistance through no fault of their own. They are either truly physically or mentally unable to provide for their own needs. Most have family that can and do help, but, sometimes it is not enough for people such as these, I have no problems with tax dollars aiding them in their lives. Now onward...

For the last several years all we hear are slogans such make the wealthy pay more, time for the wealthy to give back. Question number one, what have they taken? Many, whom the neomarxists consider wealthy, are just small businesses that employ maybe 10-50 people max. Again what have they taken from society? Nothing that I can see, what they have done is created jobs. Some are very well paying ones, others, not, but jobs are what have been given back to society. Additionally, it amazes me that these same leftists clamor for higher taxes on the job creators. Guess whose going to suffer, probably some of the employees that will either be reduced in hours, or let go, in order to meet the new increase in said taxes. The prime aspect of capitalism is the fact that one enter’s into business to not only make a living, but to make a profitable one, and by extension, giving other’s the opportunity to likewise earn a paycheck. Without profit, there are NO paychecks. The neomarxists fail to realize that most important point. Less profit, more for the employees is their mantra, or as they are wont to say, people before profit. Again I repeat, NO PROFITS, NO PAYCHECKS, NO PEOPLE EMPLOYED.

Moving right along, contrast this with those that have made a career out of living on public assistance. What exactly do THEY give back to society? Since we’re all being told that we need to sacrifice, we need to tighten our belts, should this not include them as well as every other person in this nation? From what I have personally witnessed in my life, it seems they have much idle time, nice bling-bling jewelery, seem to be well fed, wear better clothing than I can afford, and basically, have all of the most updated forms of technology. Have they earned it? Did they get calluses on their hands, come home sweaty and tired? Have they had to take work home and spend less time with their family, in order to meet deadlines.? Have they ever been truly stressed wondering from one day to the next about a major job going forth, a project needing completion, about how and where the money for their expenses are going to be made and if there will be enough to get it done? Have they ever had to budget? Again from what I have seen in life, the answer would be a resounding no!

So herein is my suggestion. Put them to work, doing things such as helping out in homeless shelters, cleaning public restrooms, assisting in making sure the streets are clean, working in school cafeterias. Any menial job that comes along, they should be made to do in assisting the public good. It is time for the parasitic career welfare recipients to be made to give something back to society.
