Met a man tonight. He is from Hungary.
When he was 18 in 1956, he escaped Communism on foot. He made it to the border and was arrested. Then he escaped prison after a few days and hid in a farm house. Then he climbed over something and made it over the Iron Curtain.
He came to America with only the clothes on his body. He lived the American Dream and is affluent, has employed hundreds, and is helping others achieve similar success.
His schoolmate was in front of a firing squad. There was some sort of diversion and he escaped. He made it to America and has 46 patents in his name.
My new friend told me this is the greatest country and has little tolerance for the whining and complaining about it. And for the lazy and slothful.
I love this country.
