[QUOTE="tat2bass, post: 7853189, member: 635306"] That will be our country's downfall. There is a difference between being helped, and being given something. We have allowed people to blur that line and nowadays everyone feels that they are entitled to a good/fair life. Parents are to easy on kids and they grow up and expect to helped or given things just for being American and being alive. I can't remember who said it, but this was a great quote that said something along the lines of the downfall of America will be when half of the nation that works gets tired of supporting the other half that expects to be taken care of by the working half, we will have met our demise. People take advantage of whatever they can and have no idea of the meaning of self sacrifice. Things will only get worse as long as we allow 95% of the nations wealth to reside with the 20% richest people leaving the rest of us to fight for scraps [/QUOTE]
