If You Were Poor...

If you were poor and didn't have enough money to eat, what would you choose as your first option for help? Would you ask someone to go out and find a person of means and point a gun at him and take some of his money against his will to give to you?

I'm willing to bet that's not your first option. Especially if there are charities that solicit funds from the public on a purely voluntary basis. I bet you would opt for this kind of help instead.

By asking the government to help the poor (or to help anyone else for that matter), you are choosing the first option. You are choosing to have someone else use the force of a gun to obtain money from others against their will.

Don't steal a person to take his money.

Work on your own.
Ask if you need a clarify, and get the good points of that.

Then, work hard on the thing that you have, and be satisfied with what you get.
And don't be jealous.
