Labor Day

Laziness is not a gift from God nor useful to mankind.
Accountability is a divine prerequisite for productivity.
Bible quote: "If a man doesn't work; neither should he eat".*
Ownership is another word for self-respect and healthy pride.
Respect for human beings is the gateway to valuing their work.

Devaluing the labor of others does not increase one's own value.
Advances in the arena of labor relations appear to have come to a halt.
Yield or production is the result of what has been expended in energy and labor.
