If you love wealth more than liberty,the tranquility of servitude more than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains sit lightly on your shoulders and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
-Samual Adams
A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you have.

I like the second one
and the govt does take what it gives. It is quite the Indian giver. Women on welfare (which has changed but I am not entirely familiar with the changes) used to have their children taken from them at the slightest "problem" or hint of problem, b/c there are many wealthy, child-less couples who could pay "child protective workers" a big sum of money to get a child to adopt
We need to teach our children there is no free lunch... and some prices that people have had to pay for govt intrusion, aka "help" .. well, it is far too expensive

Free food is too expensive.

Calling Illegal Aliens "Undocuмented Immigrants" is like calling drug dealers "Unlicensed Pharmacists"
From a correct legal point of view the term illegal alien is not synonymous with undocuмented immigrant and to claim that it is indicative of an abuse of the English language.
The law in the U.S. and many other countries, much like our Catholic Faith and Catholic doctrine, is much involved with drawing proper distinctions where distinctions are merited. The mere fact that a person from another country is in the U.S. without any papers/docuмents to prove that he is here legally, whether his stay be he for a temporary time or a permanent time does not by that fact alone make his status that of an illegal one, i.e. illegal alien.
As for example, if a legal permanent immigrant one day accidentally loses his "green card" (which is not really green) he does not all of a sudden become an illegal alien even though his docuмent is lost; no more so than you or I would lose our U.S. Citizenship if we suddenly one day lost our passport (if we had one in the first place) and our birth certificate, assuming we actually retain one in the first place. Likewise, a visitor from a foreign country with a legal temporary visa who enters the U.S. and loses his foreign passport with the U.S. visitor visa stamped in it does not suddenly become an illegal alien, although he could easily become both undocuмented and illegal if he overstays his approved time of visit, whether it be 30 days, 90 days, or whatever.
The fact of the matter is that there are a substantial number of aliens in the U.S. who do not hold docuмents -- some never held them in the first place -- who nevertheless hold a legal status in the U.S. If you doubt my word on this you can consult any administrative U.S. immigration judge who adjudicates these matters on a daily basis.
As for drug dealers some are licensed pharmacists and some are not. Licensed pharmacists if they are honest and don't take themselves too seriouslly will tell you that, of course, they deal in drugs. What do you think they deal in? Used cars or groceries!

while they wile away the hours
in their ivory towers
till they're covered up with flowers
in the back
of a black limousine
oh the games people play

I looked up Resentment in a book of quotes years ago (don't ask why..) and read this
There is a spirit of resistance implanted by the Diety in the [heart] of a man, in proportion to the size of wrongs he is destined to endure.
so in other words, if you see someone who has a bad attitude, maybe he or she has "endured" much "wrong" But people just make things worse by rejecting the person for his bad attitude... I am not saying i haven't done the same thing... regretfully
