■Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 23,1&66 4—] From Where Wei Stand... To Want Is To Have The Vice President of the United States of America this week pretty well summed up what is basically wrong with the whole Great Society concept. And could the truth come from a better horse’s mouth than his save one? Hubert Horatio Humphrey report edly told a conference of the National Assn, of Counties, meeting in New Orleans, that the day is past when rich kids can have swimming pools and poor kids cannot! He condoned the riots that have racked our cities in recent weeks, and wrote them off as rightful protests of wrongful living-conditions. Humphrey told' the county officials that there were only two alternatives to this continuing city violence: 1 - federal ownership of low-rent housing; or, 2 - subsidization of the poor so they can own their own homes. Nowhere an his speech: &id he differentiate between the tight- to HAVE and the right to EARN. And this attitude, as we see it, is what’s essentially wrong with the Great Society philosophy. In effect, it says “To want is to have”. Anyone who has a need' or a want ha,s a ’RIGHT to have that need or want; fulfilled preferably .by the federal govern ment. We see little difference between this philosophy of the Great Society, and the socialist philosophy of “To each according to his needs”. Whatever happened to the old con cept of “the right to opportunity”? Re member, way back in the history books when the whole world once called America “that Golden Land of Op portunity”? People migrated here from all over creation because here they had the right to climb to the stars if their talent and determination so indicated. And, you know, that philosophy was so successful over the years that it made America the richest and most in fluential of all the countries of the world Of course, it also made possible, unfortunately, the Great Society con cept as we know it today.
