"A guy looked at my airplane the other day and said I wonder how many people I could have fed for the price of that airplane...
I replied I am not sure, it fed a lot of families at the Dassault factory where it was built. I’m sure it fed a bunch of families that rolled the aluminum at the Alcoa factory. It surely fed a lot of people at the Honeywell factory where the experts built the turbines. It fed a whole company for a few weeks when I had them build me a new interior. It feeds the families of the linemen that fuel it.
That’s the difference between capitalism and a welfare mentality. When you buy something, you put money in people's pockets, and give them dignity for their skills.
When you give someone something for nothing, you rob them of their dignity and self worth.
Capitalism is freely giving your money in exchange for something of value.
Socialism is taking your money against your will and shoving something down your throat that you never asked for."
Still wrapping my head around last night.
Forget what Trump said for a second. The bigger scandal is that major networks appointed themselves gatekeepers of truth — deciding what Americans could and couldn’t see, as if we’re too dumb to do our own research.
They robbed people of the chance to watch raw and unfiltered in a supposedly free country. Let that sink in.
I have no problem with Islam. I am just against beheadings, stoning, marrying little girls, sexual slavery, taqiyya,slave trading, rape, jihad, burqas, child abuse, women abuse, animal abuse,multiple wives, murder, Sharia,terrorism, brainwashing, . Does that make me Islamophobic?
I think about this Reagan quote every time Washington tries to expand its power at the expense of every American’s liberty.
Freedom isn't inherited like a family heirloom. It has to be defended, generation after generation, or it disappears… forever.
You cannot reward lawbreaking with a taxpayer-funded check. My End Welfare for Non-Citizens Act ends federal welfare benefits for illegal immigrants and most refugees.
I want to ask the students screaming “Death to America”, do you have any idea what happens when American values die?
Because I do.
My family fled Iran, a country where freedom died. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.
You think America is oppressive because you have never experienced real oppression.
You think silence is violence because you’ve never been silenced.
You think words are dangerous because you have never watched a government drag someone away for speaking them.
You think capitalism is evil because you have never stood in a bread line.
You think borders are immoral because you have never had to flee across one.
You think revolution is romantic because you have never had a revolution take everything from you.
I have.
And that’s why I refuse to be quiet.
Texas Rep. Chip Roy: “At some point, people will look at this body and say maybe we should get rid of all 435 members of the House and all 100 members of the Senate and start over because Congress is literally failing the American people.”
