"Did you study business? Why not help our struggling non-profits find better, more effective ways to serve folks in need." So stated our president at the commencement at Arizona State this week.
He implied it was far worthier to work helping others and to avoid aiming at the old emblems of achievement. Possibly one of those disgraceful symbols would have been to send your child to college. A slam on the parents who forked over $50,000 or more to have their offspring commence.
But, let's look at it another way. Possibly Mr. President meant for these young people to earn and earn and earn so as they could help non-profits with $. I want to believe the approach should be to support charities, medical research, churches, soup kitchens, animal shelters, disaster relief organizations, blood banks, the arts, etc. Not to dwell on the things of life but the power financial freedom gives and how through that freedom others can be helped.
However, knowing his statist (Marxist/Fascist) goals, Obama would never tell young people to earn and earn. That is the trouble. No one will be earning and earning and giving and giving. We will just take, envy, take, envy, take, take, take. Give me, give me, give me.
'til later
