This Teacher Is Truly A Genius!

"You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."  Adrian Rogers

This man is truly a genius!

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he
had never failed a single student before,  but had once failed an
entire class.  That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked
& that no one would be poor & no one would be rich, a great
equalizer.  The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment
in this class on Obama's plan".  All grades would be averaged &
everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail & no one would receive an A...

After the first test, the grades were averaged & everyone got a B.

The students who studied hard were upset & the students who studied little were happy.  As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less & the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little. The second test average was a D!  No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F..  The scores never increased as bickering, blame & name-calling all resulted in hard feelings & no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.

All failed, to their great surprise, & the professor told them that
socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is
great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all
the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.  Could not be
any simpler than that.  (Please pass this on)  Remember, there is a
mid-term election in 2010!  Please vote wisely to build back a

Patriot Democracy, as our Forefathers intended us to keep.

(I would make one change to this … we live in a Representative Republic, not a Democracy… K)

Until next time…
