When I was in the sixth grade, I wanted to buy a J.C. Higgins shotgun from Sears. My parents told me I would have to earn the money, $29.95 plus sales tax. So I got a paper delivery route (2 cents profit per paper) and bought the shotgun when I had accumulated the price.

Then consider this: When the War on Poverty started in 1965, 70% of the lowest quintile (lowest 20%) or earners were employed. Today only 36% are employed. The lowest quintile's income is about $50,000 per year and 90% of that is government transfer payments. Biden proposes to expand the freebiemoochies even more.
