Fred, sorry, we seem to have gotten our signals crossed. I did not question that you care for the least among us, or that you have seen that the redistribution of wealth is not the answer to helping those least of us. What I was questioning is why you believe the sincerity of those politicians who continue to push for Marxist, welfare styled socialism.
I understand when one is young and idealistic. I too was a bleeding heart lib in my youth. But, how do you explain elected officials who have been in office for years and know that these policies haven’t worked yet continue to push for them?
Liberals constantly cast conservatives as hard hearted, selfish, greedy and racist. I am none of those things. I do as Jesus asked me to do, feed the hungry, cloth the naked, visit the sick and care for widows and orphans. I don’t let a government program replace my own responsibility for these things. First, because I alone will answer to Jesus. Second, because I have seen the ill effects of government intervention regarding poverty, education and family life.
I apologize if you thought I was questioning you and not your assertion that the “concern” liberals show for the least among us is sincere.
