A $50.oo Lesson
I recently asked my friends' little girl what she
wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day.
Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked
her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do? '
She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'
Her parents beamed.
'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you
don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my
house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you
$50. Then your mom and dad can take you over to where the homeless guys
hang out and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.
She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me
straight in the eye and asked, ' Why don't the homeless guys come
over and do the work, and you can just pay them the $50? '
I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party." Her parents still aren't speaking to me.
