A half century ago at the Homer Lions Club annual banquet the speaker was a man who traveled the country giving the same speech over and over, "There's no such thing as a free lunch."
That saying means more and more to me today as the nation nears the tipping point -- a time where productive citizens are outnumbered by takers. Many people are recipients of welfare and other government programs through no fault of their own; government rules and unfair taxes have forced some companies out of operation and we lost the jobs they provided. Of course, we will always have those who think they are entitled to a free lunch.
President Obama and the EPA want to eliminate the coal industry and handicap all fossil fuel production, taking away from a source of millions of jobs.
Now, by executive action, Obama seeks to add five million illegals to the work force by executive order, favoring them over native Americans.
