What's Wrong With Being A Liberal?

Socialism, and welfare is what my wise old Aunt told me as a child.
" Sometimes its cruel to be kind".
Also a abled bodied man should not reap the harvest he never sowed. The Bible also says, "if a man doesn't work, he should not eat."
An Idle mind is the devil's workshop. Crime infested ghettos are proof of this in the mountains and major cities.
Many reasons why nations should not have feed lots for the poor is if you have no time and labor in it, you don't appreciate it.

 

That's quite the assertion. What makes you think this?

 

You are aware that being fully vaxxed does not prevent you from getting COVID. It prevents you from getting severely ill or dying. So...what's your point?

 

I have no idea what you're trying to say here. And quoting Bible verses doesn't help.

 

That is very funny. If there ever was a president who was interested only in his own "enrichment" and not his constituents, that would be Mr. Donald J. Trump. LOL

There are those that fall on bad times. And it is good to have a little help, then. But government services should be safety nets, not infinite handouts.

 

It may not help you, but welfare proves me point. Look who is on welfare and doesn't work and who has the most crime and misery. Welfare fueled ghettos aren't good places to grow up.
they are full of idle minds and most don't work.
I also see a problem with grown men who still live at home and don't work. Too good to work at menial jobs so they just live of others. foolish women or parents.
You need to bring in some of them and feed an shelter them, but then you seem to only be free hearted with other people's labor.

Mary of course the handicapped need help and those who can't work. But majority on welfare or handouts are able bodied men and women.
I just vent seeing that America is gone, but that too is a natural phenomenon all empires fall sooner or later.
I think it was C.S. Lewis who told of Republic Empires that fall into socialism right before the end.

 

Interesting...the more I read people's comments here, the more I get the impression that the U.S. is a really messed up country. Must be sad to live with so much negativity and dissatisfaction.

 

I have to laugh...you talk like the U.S. was the only country that duped its citizens into getting the vaccine. Um...pretty much every country in the world recognized the value of vaccines and encouraged and/or mandated their citizens to get the shots. I guess, according to your logic, all of these other countries imposed vaccines, lockdowns and mask mandates as a political control measure for evil intentions, like Fauci. LOL

 

There is a neighborhood near me where the government built homes for poor (Black) people. They were able to buy those homes at a low interest rate. But they had to buy them for themselves. They were not just given to them for free. That was about 30 years ago, Those homes are neat and well taken care of. The yards have attractive bushes and flowers.

There is a "Developement" in a nearby city where the people were given free housing. It's a wreck. Homes and other things are worth to people exactly what they pay for them.

Democrats (Liberals) believe that you can pay people out poverty. Republican's believe you should enable people to work and earn their way out of poverty.

 

Perhaps you should be. I find it's always valuable to look at "the big picture" and be informed of what's going on in other countries. It stands to reason that if most other countries adopted COVID regulations and restrictions, their health authorities were acting in the best interests of their citizens, just as Fauci did. If you demonize Fauci, you might as well demonize all of the medical experts who advised their leaders. And that would be just foolish.

 

I find it hard to believe that you bother to watch and read Canadian media reports, particularly when you've just said, "'m not sufficiently concerned about the other countries to look into what they do." Methinks your comment was rather disingenuous.
