Having never been a big fan of Davy Crockett, I have to thank Star Parker for this one:
Old Davy must have been wearing his coonskin cap a little too tight.
Clearly, Davy Crockett was not as bright as the brilliant Founding Fathers who designed this country. They did their best to build safeguards against priests and charity hustlers from getting their hands on the public purse. The Income Tax Amendment was the beginning of the end.
Most Americans know that Socialist priests and their parasite class now control the government. In one sense Davy Crockett set coerced charity on today’s path.
Finally, the Democrat party’s parasite class is huge and growing under the Chicago sewer rat’s unconstitutional moral leadership. Boehner and McConnell have no intention of reining in the sewer rat, or parasite voters; so perhaps conservative Americans fighting to restore their freedoms should narrow down their target to professional charity hustlers. One sure way to stop Socialists from feeding tens of millions of parasites with tax dollars is to stop feeding charity hustlers. Everyone knows about the millions, while only God knows how many charity hustlers are getting rich in charitable institutions receiving tax dollars.
Incidentally, Elizabeth “Cherokee” Warren rails about Wall Street needing a scalping, but never a bad word about charity hustlers who are destroying the Constitution.
The story is told that when Tennessee frontiersman Davy Crockett served in the U.S. Congress (between 1827 and 1835) he voted for a bill appropriating $20,000 for relief for victims of a fire that broke out in Georgetown.
When he returned home, a constituent farmer chastised him for supporting the bill and for “giving what is not yours to give.”
The farmer told Crockett the Constitution does not grant Congress the power to give charity, and if it did, “You will very easily perceive what a wide door this would open for fraud and favoritism and corruption, on the one hand, and robbing the people on the other.”
It stands to reason that bureaucrats spending other people’s money – funds taken by force – is not going to produce good results.
