That is unfortunately true.

Here's my version: Give a man with a welfare card a fish can he can eat for a day. Teach a man with a welfare card to fish and he will sit in your boat all day and drink your beer.

Teaching a man to fish is kinda like having your own 401k that still works.

First sell him a boat. He will be back for top waters, crankbaits, many different strengths of line.

Soon you can sell him a better trolling motor, some chrome wheels for his trailer and probably an updated GPS for his favorite fishing spots.

He will soon graduate into needing a larger and more powerful boat, along with ALL related equipment. Remember what the word BOAT really means:
Break
Out
Another
Thousand
If the 2nd admendment only applies to muskets and muzzle-loaders, then the 1st admentment must apply only to the spoken or printed word. Printing must be done on hand presses, news stories must be written in longhand, no keyboards or electric processes may be used.
