Thought for today:
"As any wise parent or guardian knows, that which comes to one too easily is as likely to go away as quickly. Parents of over 50 years in age intrinsically know that what isn't earned and sweated for is rarely valued to its proper extent. Therefore, as the guardians of their electorate, why have our politicians enacted law after law for over 20 years which has penalised the regular worker and tax payer while rewarding at a higher and grossly disproportionate rate, those (who for legitimate and illegitimate reason), no longer go out to work or pay taxes on earned income? Why is spending above one's income to be welcomed by the treasury while saving is no longer positively encouraged? Any good guardian is only too willing to give their charges a helping hand at times of need, but all good guardians also know the difference between a 'hand up' and a 'hand out.' The difference is that a 'hand up' promotes growth and a 'hand out' stunts it! " William Forde: November 8th, 2013.
