Washington, DC—When we formed our government there were no
provisions for social safety nets. It
was just not deemed a function for government.
Americans are charitable by nature and we all hate to see helpless
people deprived by circumstances. We
always contributed generously to churches and such to aid the disabled and
needy.
We have terrific and efficient charities such as the
Salvation Army, Catholic Charities and the American Red Cross. They were undermined and in effect made
obsolete by our politicians.
Government should have been limited to national defense and
infrastructure. Nowhere did we ever
create a right to handouts or free medical care. We created a system where productivity
creates wealth for virtually everyone.
Our politicians have damaged the American dream with wealth
redistribution schemes that have punished the productive and instead rewarded
criminals and parasites. The really
needy and deserving people are more deprived than ever as a result.
Frankly government politicians and their bureaucrats have
turned what should charity into a scam well beyond epic proportions. Criminals took charge of tax funds in order
to administer the social train wreck that has made many millions of pathetic derelicts.
Our social welfare system has robbed these Americans of
self-reliance and the desire to become productive. We’ve created an entire entitlement zombie
population. As a result our government
has destroyed their lives.
Rapidly and uncontrollably we included millions of the
impoverished of Mexico and Central America into our social safety net despite
their criminal trespassing on our soil.
We measure poverty by the amount of homeless we see on the
street. Before the War on Poverty and
Great Society programs we had only a fraction of the homeless we see wandering
the streets today. Most Americans are
not old enough to remember that far back.
If we are to survive as a nation we must turn back the trespassers
and turn over charity to the faith based organizations and such.
