But, what is wrong with helping? If someone is struggling what would a "Christian nation" preach? Darwinism? Because it seem they push Darwinism until it comes to bailing out Wall St. and the to big to fail businesses.
Are there those that take advantage of Big brother? Sure but we need to quit acting like the corporate world doesn't somehow contribute to that mentality. There are those that give years to companies for them to cut them off to apease some share holder who could give a %#$$ about the company. Then they are laid off. The corporate world is eroding the rights of working class Americans and we sit around and do nothing.

There is nothing wrong with helping. However it is not goverments job, in my opinion, to tell me who I should and should not help. That is MY job. just as it is your job to tell yourself who and how you should help someone. Now i am not saying do away with all programs such as food stamps, medicaid, heat assistance, ...but enough already.

48 million Americans on food stamps (according to news reports)? That is insanity.

The corporate AND government world...

Absolutely nothing. That said, it is not the federal government's responsibility. You can't take my private property forcibly away and give it to whoever you think deserves it. This is one of the biggest reasons for the American Revolution. Do you think King George had it right?

It's called free enterprise and capitalism. It's not perfect but it has helped shape America into the greatest, most powerful country ever. You have to take the bad with the good and there has been more good than bad. Even the destitute in America have a cell phone and cable on an HDTV.

I can't drink at work so what do you expect? :)
Taint a drinking party without Verlin, PKM, AintHopper, and Rev9's drunken moderating.



(BTW, Thomas Jefferson disagrees with your roll of government redistribution ideas)
