*There 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 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/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of
programs 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:1.  There is no such thing as a free lunch, and2.  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!Think about this:*


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."

When they come for mine they better bring theirs
