This is fantastic and we've watched these entitlements

gaining more momentum over the past few decades.

My very close friend, Ron, who died July 1, 2016 was an

apt. manager in fremont.  He told me that within a 

four square block area of his 125 unit complex were 

close to 1,000 apt. under section 8 housing.   This meaning

the $1,500.00 per month apartments had section 8 renters

only paying $250.00 -$350.00 per month.  So that means

the tax payer is covering over $1,000.00 per month to the

land lord.  $1,000.00 per month times 1,000 apt. units  is

$1,000,000.00 times 12 months in a year =$12,000,000.00

and this only applies to one 4 block square area within

the City of Fremont that is nearly 100 square miles.

How many more section 8 units are in Fremont, S.F. Bay

area, Calif,  plus 49 other states.  

Right now a one bedroom one bath apt. runs about $2600.00

to $3,000.00 PER MONTH.  What is the tax payer paying now?

On top of that Ron said that many of these units have multiple

families living in one apartment and each family is being

subsidized for food, phone, education and medical.

I think tons of pigs are in the box already.

Oh, so very very true.

Thought to remember:

Karl Marx said, "Remove one freedom per generation and soon you will
have no freedom and no one would have noticed."

    There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some
exchange students in the class.

    One day while the class was in the lab, the professor noticed one
young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and
stretching as if his back hurt.  The professor asked the young man
what was the matter.

    The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had
been shot while fighting Communists in his native country who were
trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new
communist regime.  In the midst of his story, he looked at the
professor and asked a strange question.  He asked: "Do you know how to
catch wild pigs?"

    The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line.

    The young man said that it was no joke. "You catch wild pigs by
finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground.
The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free food.
When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side
of the place where they are used to coming.  When they get used to the
fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of
the fence.  They get used to that and start to eat again.  You
continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in
the last side.  The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to
come through the gate to eat that free corn again.  You then slam the
gate on them and catch the whole herd.  Suddenly the wild pigs have
lost their freedom.  They run around and around inside the fence, but
they are caught.  Soon they go back to eating the free corn.  They are
so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for
themselves, so they accept their captivity."


    The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees
happening in America & Canada.  The government keeps pushing us toward
Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form
of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned
income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments
not to plant crops (CRP), welfare entitlements, medicine, drugs, etc.,
while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time.

    One should always remember two truths:

    There is no such thing as a free lunch, and you can never hire
someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it
yourself.

    If you see that all of this wonderful government "help" is a
problem confronting the future of democracy in America & Canada, you
might want to share this with your friends.

    If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life, then
you will probably not share this.

    BUT, God help us all when the gate slams shut!

    Think about this:


    Quote for today: "The problems we face today are there because the
people who work for a living are now outnumbered by those who vote for
a living."
