Lincoln on wealth distribution

You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.

What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is surely the end of any nation’s future.

 

Abraham Lincoln
