I don't know who Dr. Rogers is but this makes sense:
Dr. Rogers is quoted:
"Friend, you cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the
wealthy out of freedom. And what one person receives without working
for, another person must work for without receiving. The government
can’t give to anybody anything that the government does not first take
from somebody. And when half of the people get the idea they don't
have to work because the other half are going to take care of them, and
when the other half get the idea it does no good to work because
somebody’s going to get what I work for, That, dear friend, is about the
end of any nation."
Margret Thatcher (former UK PM) said it this way: "Socialism works until you run out of other people's money."
