ELWELL, WALTER AND YARBROUGH, ROBERT W., Third Edition (2013) Encountering The New Testament, Grand Rapids, Baker Academic.
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.
ReplyDeleteIs this man a genius?
That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
ReplyDeleteThe professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on this plan". All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A.... (substituting grades for dollars - something closer to home and more readily understood by all).
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.
To their great surprise, ALL FAILED and the professor told them that communism 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. These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.
Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? Neither could I.
This appears a Soviet style Communism/socialism.
ReplyDeleteAlbert Mohler, for example, has mentioned that under Chinese communism economic capitalistic prosperity is exchanged for liberty and so their system appears a type of hybrid. There are very wealthy persons in China.
Facebook Search People Places and Things from research cannot be deleted and does not make much sense.
ReplyDeleteWith my Mom's permission, as I homecare for her living downstairs I use her account to 'Like' my Facebook posts via Blogger, yet she it not showing up whatsoever in the 'M' section even with MM in her name and she shows up as one of the profile boxes that views me. So, Facebook recognizes that much.
Therefore I reason that the search feature is really (once again) really questionable...
It seems more hung up on accumulated search numbers.
Dear Sir.
ReplyDeleteGood day to you and your family.I apologize if the content here-under are contrary to your moral ethics but please treat with absolute secrecy and personal.
My name is Engr. Farrukh Iqbal from Pakistan, but worked in Damascus, Syria. I am 33 years Old, and i am a personal investor, also an oil Tycoon from Syria and Saudi Arabia: Al Furat Petroleum Company (AFPC), the leader in the region in Reservoir Management.
AFPC was established under Service Contract no. 210 ratified by Law no. 43 of 1977 and named as per decree-law no. 12 in 1985. AFPC is a joint venture company between the General Petroleum Corporation (50%) and private shareholders Syria Shell Petroleum Development (SSPD) etc……… ........
Due to the war in Syria,I moved some funds into a bank in London,United Kingdom, for safety.
The amount that is moved to the bank is 42.6Million usd with the help of my colleague name: Mr.wilhelm name to deposit the fund.
I could not move the funds nor deposit it in my name so as to avoid suspicion by the Oil Company.
I want to transfer this fund into your bank account in your country. I have contacted the Director of the bank where the fund is deposited and asked if the fund can be loaded into an ATM VISA CARD and he said it is possible to load some of the funds into an ATM VISA CARD, while most of it will be wired to your account via bank transfer.
Why i contacted you is that I want you to tell me more about good investment so that i will move this fund into your account in your country so that I could relocate my investment planning to your country, out of Syria, Now that Syria security and Economic independence had been lost to the greatest lower level, and our culture has been lost, i have to relocate my family out from Syria to England.
I need a foreign partner to enable me transport my investment capital and then relocate with my family, honestly.
Tell me more about your country, how good it will be to invest in your country Cities, Such as buying of properties, houses, real estate and investments in tourism.
I will appreciate whatever result you may brief me. Do let me know your idea and knowledge regarding these or any other profitable investment you may suggest.
I shall tell you more about this transaction as soon as i get your readiness concerning this transaction.
Waiting for your reply
Thanks and best regards,
Engr. Farrukh Iqbal.

ReplyDeleteIs frustrating stuff from prob a fortune 50 corp.
"In old Roman Courts, instead of taking oath on the sacred books, men used to swear holding their testicles.
ReplyDeleteHence the word 'testify' originated from 'testicles'.
If proved false, the testes of liars were cut & fed to the dogs tied nearby.
(This punitive action could be very effective even today, especially for many people in power !!!)
