👉CARL J. KIECK INTERNATIONAL #RESEARCH GROUP BRILLIANT #QUOTES SERIES 👉From SOME CALL IT UTOPIA (2023) by Thomas R. Fair #ThomasFair #Quote: 👉“ON THE WELFARE STATE’S DISGUISED BACK DOOR INTO SOCIALISM. ... #WelfareState #Welfarism 👉👉"While the so-called welfare state has an easily opened front door, it too often also has a disguised back door into socialism. Certainly not all those who identify as progressives or liberals, or who wish to see more needs-based welfare benefits, are sympathetic to fully-fledged socialism. ... The clear fork in the ideological road separating those who are closet socialists from liberals legitimately focused on helping the poor and the helpless is evidenced in those conflating political equality - equality based on equal freedom, nondiscrimination, a right to equal respect and treatment under the law, and an equal say in government - with eco-nomic equality. The latter mandates equalizing or governmental appropriation of wealth and economic resources, to force an equal share of wealth for all. Where does this socialist fixation on mandating equality of wealth as the bedrock of welfare come from? Compassion? Ethics? Tocqueville suggests that for socialists the thought of equality begins with envy, meaning no one should be better off than I am and no one should have more than I have. If my neighbor has two cars, I want two cars; if she wears silk dresses, I should have silk dresses; if they have a 3,000-square foot house, I should have a house at least that large. I am naturally entitled to equivalent things because we are all equal. However, Deirdre McCloskey quotes an old Spanish proverb that says ‘Wide-spread evil is a comfort to fools, making them feel that they are all equal, and have no one to envy,’ and also points out that the politics of insatiable envy drive society into a vicious plunging spiral rather than the upward spiral created by envy's industrious and virtuous opposite, namely motivation, which is the most essential ingredient of human betterment, if not human survival itself.” #HenryNowak 💪#QuentinDeranque 💪#CharlieKirk 💪#Socialism #Reagan #RonaldReagan #Thatcher #MargaretThatcher #Trump #Elon #ElonMusk #DOGE #Woke #Wokeness #EU #AffirmativeAction #DJT #JDVance #Quotation #News #Politics #Education #MSM #College #MAGA #University #DonaldTrump #CHRIST #JESUS #JesusChrist
