"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."
Calling to fire the manager is silly. Stammen isn’t real. He doesn’t exist. He’s very obviously a puppet for Preller. The team is a product of a decade from Preller with an open checkbook for a lot of his time here. His time here needs to end. It’s time for a new era.
Science says we need 4 basic elements to survive:
• Food, Water, Air, Light
Now here's what Jesus says:
• I am the Bread of life
• I am the living Water
• I am the Breath of life
• I am the Light of the world
Science is right. We all need Jesus.
@Padres If the new ownership is reading this! Preller is a head case that has driven this team into the gutter with bad trades and even worse contracts! Don't even get me started on his coach hiring!
@JMerrillMadness Gotta year it apart and start over. Look at teams Pittsburgh and Washington! Building the right way! We would be a powerhouse right now if not for that Soto trade!
