[QUOTE="Kevin Lang, post: 1010386, member: 65699"] Charity should be private-they way it used to be and the way that the founders intended it to be-as a public safety net is tantamount to someone robbing a store's cash register and then buying items from that store using the money that they just pilfered from its register. I am not okay with the government taking my money by force and giving it to those who they deem to be the "less fortunate" (we've been doing that for decades with the war on poverty and we aren't winning that one). I am okay with the churches and charities to whom I give my money willingly using it to assist those who they deem to be less fortunate. How politicians giving money to people in exchange for votes is called "welfare" and not "bribery" or "extortion" is a mystery to me. [/QUOTE]
