I have always felt that we have greatest country in the world. It has always given me great pleasure to see honest, hardworking people and who are willing to take risks to get ahead and succeed. I always felt that this was that America got to be great and that we all should be working hard to help improve our own lives and the lives of others by carrying on this great American tradition. As a result of being brought up with this thinking, I am more than willing to go out of my way to try to help people succeed and obtain their goals. To see people succeed in their life's goals and ambitions has always been very gratifying to me and given me a good feeling.
Another thing that always gives me a good feeling is to see couples doing things as a family and with their children. To me, this is what life is all about and should be about. Many of this new generations of do-gooders, as they are often called, seem to think that everybody should live on handouts and that anyone who is successful should be cut back down and not allowed to succeed without their input as this is not fair to the less fortunate in this country.
What they do not seem to realize or don't want to realize is that the people who are more successful probably do more to help the less fortunate than all the government and giveaway programs can ever hope to do. A successful person who has obtained his achievements through hard, honest work is usually willing to try to help others reach similar success. A person who is successful usually lives in a little better house. Many now think that this wrong, but that person probably pays several times the property taxes of someone living in a less expensive home. This will benefit everyone as this helps to educate their children and pay for many of the local services that people demand today. If they hire people to help take care of their homes or properties, they are usually paid for with after tax dollars, and this creates jobs for the people doing the work. Isn't this sharing the wealth? Most successful people help create jobs either by expanding their own business or investing on other business. I think that in order to get people off welfare and off the government rolls, we need all the successful people that we can get in this country.
Author William F. Hill's "Where is the Justice?", is a lengthy yet captivating and mind-blowing look into one man and one family's experiences when a successful man seeking to help others gets taken advantage of.
