I thought is quite astute of Droopy to use the word Makers instead of the word Givers.
Makers are those of the Fortune 500. They are those who control the means of production. Takers are those required to take crap from the Makers in order to keep their jobs.

I agree with Hugh Nibley that if we could invent a machine that could measure word the idea that capitalism rewards those that deserve it would collapse in days.

Dobson and his fellow travelers were asking Christians to pray for rain to fall on Obama's speech. That did not happen. Does that mean God does not answer prayer. Or OMG God is a Democrat!!!!

I won't comment here yet again on Nibley's abysmal economic illiteracy or his emotion based anti-capitalist mentality.
Suffice it to say, the "makers", those who tend toward a cooperative, productive, independent relationship with their fellow citizens are, following Peter Schweizer's book, in general, conservatives and libertarians; those on the right. The takers, those who tend to a dependent, parasitical relationship with their fellow citizens, are "liberals"; those on the Left.
Nothing is going to startle us more when we pass through the veil to the other side than to realize how well we know our Father [in Heaven] and how familiar his face is to us

Nor will you refute what I said except with an emotion based anti-Nibley mentality.
