Quote by Thomas Jefferson
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.
Summary
This quote suggests that democracy is threatened when the principles of hard work and productivity are undermined. It implies that a government or society that redistributes resources without considering the effort and contribution of individuals creates a system that discourages work and rewards complacency. According to this view, when individuals who are willing to work diligently are disempowered to support those who are unwilling, the balance necessary for a functioning democracy is disrupted.
