living that our own people sometimes complain about, but the rest of the
world envies, without continuing to work hard. The "good life" is not
the lazy life or the empty life or the life that consumes without producing.
The good life is the active, productive, working life - - the life that gives
as well as gets.
No work is demeaning or beneath a person's dignity if it provides
food for his table and clothes and shelter for his children. The thing that
is demeaning is for a man to refuse work and then to ask someone else
who works to pay taxes to keep him on welfare.
Let us recognize once and for all in America that any work is
preferable to welfare.
