Why should they take pride in their work? Work hard, pay taxes, support your family. Oh, I almost forgot....also support those that would rather not work. There's not a heck of a lot of motivation for people to really work hard in this country. A half-assed effort at most jobs nowadays is enough to keep someone employed. If they get fired it's no big deal. They either move on to another job that rewards mediocrity or someone else can support them.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
