Keystone> The purpose of government is to improve the living condition of its people.


Don't think so.
The first purpose of government is to provide for
the common defense. (To protect the people grouping
together from the predations of other peoples.)

Charity begins at home.

The local community should be looking out for their
'disadvantaged'. Helping their needy etc. etc.

What we have today . . . is the socialists in these
States' stealing moneys from the folks in other
States' to 'provide' for folks who - all too often -
should be forced to work by their local communities.

Thanks for the kind thoughts Ribit!

You are wrong.

The purpose of government is to improve the living condition of its people.

Every man for himself is every man against his brother.

Survival of the fittest is great in a test tube, but I assure you it won't work for a hungry child or a destitute person who is sick.

Once in a while when you shave in the morning and stare at the putz in front of you, wouldn't it be nice to see a human being?

If I am better than you, which I strongly suspect, you will forgive me for having more hope for this society.

Government is not religion. There are no guarantees of purity. There are no hard and fast rules.

Iconoclastic dogma ends nowhere. Iconoclastic dogma gets you shmucks like Ted Cruz.

Iconoclastic dogma attracts the swill of the political world.

I love my country and I have nothing but great expectations for it's future.

I don't have time for scared, withdrawn, negative bullshit from undereducated people without enough insight into what a human being is capable of doing.

I am pretty secure in my values.
I value human beings.
