here
was a chemistry professor in a large college
that had some exchange students in the
class. One day while the class was in the
lab, the prof 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. In his native
country he had been shot
while fighting communists 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 everyday
to eat the free corn. 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. The
government keeps pushing us toward
Communism/Socialism and keeps
spreading the free corn out in the
form of programs such as
supplemental income, tax credit for
unearned income, tax cuts, tax
exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy
subsidies, payments not to plant
crops (CRP), welfare, 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 , you might
want to send this on to your
friends. If you think the free ride
is essential to your way of life,
then you will probably delete this
email. But God help you when the
gate slams shut!
