Guest editorial
We mass-produce almost everything in this country-except character.
An advertisement that appeared in Newsweek magazine by Warner and Swasey, which Masonry believes merits this space.
It used to be that when you wanted something, you worked to earn it. Now you stage a riot to get it given to you at someone else's expense.
If your father or grandfather lost his job, he took whatever work he could get, and he went (probably walked miles) to where they was work-any honest work being done. Now hordes of relief "clients" refuse a job unless it is to their liking, and they demand the job be brought to them in their community.
This nation was built by immigrants (beginning in the 1600's and earlier) who struggled here for opportunity, and would have scorned the false idea of "something for nothing." Now it seems to be an almost universal (and all-too-often the only) ambition.
It used to take a lifetime of gruelling work and scrimping for a family or a country to earn a little surplus, a taste of security. Now mobs of stupid "students" and whole "emerging nations" demand they be given it, out of your earnings and with no effort on their part.
"Minority groups all over the earth seem to think the world owes them everything they want. So vicious destructiveness makes necessary higher taxes to pay for more police to protect decent citizens; higher taxes for playgrounds and parks which hoodlums promptly make unsafe; higher taxes for schooling for gangs who don't seem to want or are unable to be educated. The minority groups whose rights no one seems to consider are the taxpayers and decent citizens-who may have been pampering evil too long.
