I just find that we have a far better chance with a social conservative who has core beliefs that charity should be a choice. They tend to be a lot less likely to see the taxpayers as a cash cow.
My congressman is a baptist minister and he ran on the promise that he wouldn’t bring a lot of money into the district. He simply explained that we shouldn’t take more than we send and sending less would give us more local control of how our tax dollars are spent.

So true. Social conservatives have always believed that charity should be done in private or through religious institutions, not the government
Sounds like you have a great representative. The district next to mine may have Alan Grayson as their next House rep...and I pity them
