Get a job. Weed a garden, wash cars, pick vegetables – whatever you have to do to make a living and avoid being on the dole. It can help save the U.S.A.
That’s one of the messages in conservative activist Ben Carson’s new book, One Nation: What We Can Do to Save America’s Future. “It may not make you a millionaire, but certainly can pay the bills and put food on the table,” says Carson, not caring a whit about political correctness, something he’s well known for disdaining.
The former pediatric neurosurgeon argues that individual actions and responsibility can help right a nation badly off the rudder of fiscal and economic responsibility. The message – however much it grates against blue-state sensibilities – is resonating. His book debuted at number one on The New York Times hardcover nonfiction bestseller list several weeks ago and is still hovering near the top – a notch below Hillary Clinton’s new memoir, Hard Choices, as of this week.

America had a backbone before welfare.
ReplyDeleteWork??? Why should they? After all, it is "free money". I actually heard a man say that in court trying to explain to a judge why he did not pay his restitution. (I work in the court syatem) He said he was getting unemployment and foodstamps, and he didn't want to get a job and lose his "free money".
ReplyDeleteI love this guy, just wish he was our President.
ReplyDeleteThis guy assumes that getting a job is soooo easy.
ReplyDelete8:47 You have to get off the couch first.
ReplyDeleteHa! And correct... Problem is there are too many people *waiting* for the perfect job instead of doing work that they consider beneath them. Take a job, any job and keep looking.
ReplyDeleteIf this honest man was to enter the political arena and win....he would be shot dead by the very people who put him in office. YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.
