AMEN Tom ----- Original Message ----- From: David Pritchard To: pianotech at ptg.org Sent: Sunday, November 22, 2009 9:33 AM Subject: Re: [pianotech] Gated communities William Truitt wrote: It is an indisputable statistical fact that the rich are getting richer, and everybody else is getting poorer – more and more wealth is concentrating in the hands of fewer and fewer people, and that has accelerated during this great economic crisis that we still find ourselves in. Who amongst us piano technicians does not feel assaulted by these economic changes? It is not to our benefit when fewer and fewer people feel they can afford our services. I agree 100%! If the liberals among us would stop promoting the welfare state for the purpose of growing their docile voting block, we could encourage more people to work hard and get themselves out of poverty. If Barney Frank and his cronies in congress hadn't forced mortgage companies to loan to people that couldn't afford the house they wanted, we wouldn't be in this economic crisis. The farther down the road we go towards socialism, the more the producers in society will not have a reason to work hard and the more the non-producers will expect more and more from the government. Can I hear an Amen? David -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://ptg.org/pipermail/pianotech.php/attachments/20091122/9031a83f/attachment.htm>
