    You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

    You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

    You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

    You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

    You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

    You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's Initiative and independence.

    You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what They could and should do for themselves."

    ~Abraham Lincoln

    Democrats of today have more in common with Stalin than Founding Fathers

    Much of the rich hire illegal immigrants, or outsource jobs.

    In the past they imported Black slaves even.

    Not exactly my kind of people.

    You must hate black people than, slavery still exists in Africa.

    The rich do use illegal immigrants, ILLEGAL immigrants hurts the poor, not the rich.

    Never understand why poor people are pro Illegals, they obviously do not understand how the economics of it works

    ILLEGALS are not doctors and lawyers

    (this might shock you, but every race on the planet was a slave at some point..who knew right?)

    All truth.

    I was watching a comedian do his shtick, and he floated the idea that people of the past were WAY smarter than people are now. His example was the building of the pyramids. He opined that our uber-smart ancestors were merely out-bred by the stupid masses causing an intelligence extinction, and that modern people are the descendants of the dumbest, but most prolific.

    While this guy was just a comedian doing his shtick, juxtaposing Lincoln's words above against today's liberal idea of governance seems to lend credence to the idea.

    Indeed slavery still exists in Africa.

    Yes, the rich use illegal immigrants at the expense of the poor.

    Nonsense!!

    No serious/sane person is calling for the things Lincoln allegedly listed in your quote.

    And we KNOW that some amount of socialism is right for "America".

    Try again.

    And there you go...

    The hipsters, Marxists and Communists of today have zero respect for the Founders of the greatest country that has ever existed.

    100 years ago you would be hanged for such comments, but today you might get a book deal for such hate

    Sure hope none of your ancestors spilled blood for their country in the past because you just spit on their grave

    I may come back (to you), after you start making more sense and exhibit a better grasp of 'reality'.

    Regards.

    No, they don't. If you honestly believe that, nothing anyone can say or do will change your thinking. You have been completely indoctrinated - in a manner Stalin would no doubt approve of, LOL
