The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan"..
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A....
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D! No one was happy.
When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.
As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed. Could not be any simpler than that. (Please pass this on)
Remember, there is a test coming up. The 2012 elections.
Shame so many people have absolutely no clue about the meaning of this anecdote.
ReplyDeleteHold up. One minute you guys say Obama is socialist. The next he is supposed to be in bed with big business. Which is it?
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome way to put it,
ReplyDeleteto 6:52, are you kidding? come now; you can surely figure this one out for yourself.
ReplyDeletebo is a socialist/marxist and wants to make everything "equal" for the masses; but he's no dummy when it comes to lining his own pockets, so he has it both ways.
get it now, don't you? i sure hope so.
by the way, that teacher should receive an award. he should teach the demos this analogy. so simple to understand they may actually understand.
I also like the question that none of the politicians seem to want to answer.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a fair amount of every dollar you make to give up in taxes?
If people had to write a check instead of it being deducted from each paycheck they would be outraged.
AAAAAAAmen!
ReplyDeleteWe need more teachers like that! How plain and simple to explain Obama's plan. Really awsome!
ReplyDeleteThe real inside mechanism of socialism is revealed. By the end of the term even the highly motivated student are realizing that their extra efforts aren't gaining anything.
ReplyDeleteWhy work hard for nothing?
Socialism has failed and will fail in every city state and country in the world.
Hey you libtards, name a place where it works. Anywhere in the world.
