Makes sense...

Thanks Cindy...


This teacher is truly a genius!
As the late Adrian Rogers said, "you cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."


An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had
never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class.

That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one
would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor
then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan.
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade
so no one would fail and no one would receive an A."

After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The
students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little
were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied
little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they
wanted a free ride too so they studied little. The second test average was
a D! No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F. The scores never
increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings
and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else. All failed, to their
great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also
ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is
great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or
want to succeed.

Could not be any simpler than that.
