Just remember....
1) You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.
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) 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 my dear friend, is about the end of any nation.
5) You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
-Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931 - 2005
Along a similar note:
Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it. They failed and it closed.
Now we are trusting the economy of our country and our banking system to the same nit-wits who couldn't even make money running a whore house and selling whiskey!
