The Pig Pen
I copied this but it's something to ponder!
We are headed here!
This is NOT a joke. Just something to think about.
You will appreciate the final statement.
There was a professor in a large college that had some
exchange students in the class.
One day while the class was in the lab, the professor
noticed one young man, an 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 regime.
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 that it 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 food.
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, which are used to the free corn, start to come
through the gate to eat that free corn again.
You then 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 in America & Canada.
The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/ Social-
ism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of pro-
grams such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned
income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies,
payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare entitlements,
medicine, drugs, etc., while we continually lose our freedoms,
just a little at a time.
One should always remember two truths:
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and you can never
hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can
do it yourself.
If you see that all of this wonderful government "help"
is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America &
Canada, you might want to share this with your friends.
If you think the free ride is essential to your way of
life, then you will probably not share this.
BUT, God help us all when the gate slams shut!
Quote for today: "The problems we face today are there
because the people who work for a living are now outnumbered
by those who vote for a living."
A thought to remember, Marx said, "Remove one freedom
per generation and soon you will have no freedom and no one
would have noticed."**
Look up the Cloward-Piven strategy and then Saul Alinsky's
book "Rules for Radicals" both are from the late 1960s and
do the math.
This started with Karl Marx back in 1883 with the Com-
munist Manifesto.
The loss of one freedom a generation since 1883 was
about 7-8 generations.
There are 8 C-P Strategies and 12 Alinsky rules which
if you read them you will see how familiar they are.
We took God out of schools,
They created Obamacare
They have driven up poverty
Increased the national debt
Trying to take away guns
Driven millions on to welfare
They have taken over the education of K-College
Attacked the religions of millions
And have divided people by class or race
And so many sit back and nod their clueless heads.
I suggest you all become part of the solution and not be
part of the problem.
May God intervene for us all.
Conservatively,
John
