“SOCIALISM IS A PHILOSOPHY OF FAILURE” – Quote by WINSTON CHURCHILL: Christian Blogger Lorilyn Roberts





“Socialism is a philosophy of failure,
the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy,
its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”
-- Winston Churchill


These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read:
Unfortunately, most voters don't know this.
(I don’t know who to credit for the following, but it’s too well said not to repeat)

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

5. 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 is the beginning of the end of any nation.


Can you think of any reason for not sharing this?

Neither could I...

  2. That's great insight from someone who lived so long ago.
