Bring back the jobs, and for God’s sake, don’t legalize more laborers to do them.
Until there are negative consequences for being poor and those consequences result in under performing groups becoming less numerous there will only be more and more and more poor.
Rewarding being poor by continuous handouts only fertilizes the incubators to make more and more and more poor.
We all have the freedom to make our own choices. We don’t have the right to dump the responsibility for making bad choices on someone else.
Nobody should have any obligation to support irresponsibility.
We are offered equal opportunity but not equal outcomes of course. Even God has limits. He offers a different measure of intelligence to each but He also offers wisdom without limits. Wisdom can compensate for huge amounts of lack of intelligence. Intelligence in any amount without wisdom is mostly a waste.
Americans are generally pretty successful in achieving their goals. Apparently the majority of us had liberal guilt over not living in a third world country and are being successful in achieving that goal. We are spreading the wealth so that we can work down to the average income of the world, which I believe is around $8,000 per year per working adult.
