The Left's War on American Dreamers
By Lloyd Marcus
...
Since he was nine years old, my 88-year-old black dad benefited from trickle
-down economics. The natural entrepreneur shined shoes for five cents a
shine on the corner of Baltimore and Gay Streets. He shined shoes at the
Greyhound Bus station for $1 per day. He earned around $4 in tips by putting
on a good show; twirling his brushes and popping his shoeshine cloth. After
the shine he used a whisk broom to brush down his customer's suit. Dad
chuckled saying he always found a spot on the back of the gentleman's suit
which required a little extra attention. Dad, a little boy, made $1.25 per
week working with the fish man who sold fish from his horsedrawn wagon.
The proud American dreamer still beams, telling me how he paid rent to Aunt
Nee who raised him. When Dad purchased a sport shirt for 45 cents, he
bragged to his buddies that he was buying his own clothes. Dad said he was
outraged when they raised the admission into the movies from 10 cents to 11.
He budgeted five cents for the movie snack bar. Dad jokingly said youth
today are smarter than him. Instead of working to earn money, they hit
someone over the head. I thought, or Obama takes it from achievers to give
to the lazy and irresponsible.
Folks, here is a perfect example of an American tragedy created by democrats
. My cousin who recently passed away at age 68 was a product of generational
welfare; total government dependency. She had six kids, 25 grandchildren
and 32 great-grandchildren. Dad said she never held a job. The vast majority
of her offspring are following in her footsteps. Imagine all of the natural
gifts and talents lying dormant and unfulfilled in that family. The
Democrats provide them with just enough free stuff to survive and keep them
loyal democrat voters. It is truly tragic folks.
My sister-in-law is a grandmother. A few years ago, she decided to pursue
her dream since her youth of becoming an actress. After taking acting
lessons, performing in local productions and trips from her hometown
Baltimore to New York, she has landed a few impressive acting jobs. This
does not surprise me. She has always been a natural.

左派搞的奖懒罚勤的福利政策，害了交税的人，也害了吃福利的人。 |
