You think the Democratic party is the best. And
you are not alone among evangelicals who think that. However, it is
perplexing to understand how Christians could support the left.
Extreme left is Communist –depriving people of their freedoms, including
religious freedom, and the fruits of their labors –destroying individual
initiative and motivation to create by destroying the right to private
ownership and the initiative to increase one’s productivity and earnings.
Everything belongs to the State in a communistic nation. No freedom.
Atheistic. Constant surveillance by the KGB. Redistribution
of wealth occurred in Russia and in Cuba. In my lifetime.
China’s thing was to stop all the birthing—and now some of their
leaders realized they have way more boys than girls –and they still forcibly
sterilize and abort their women –and put Christians in jail –in China. North Korea is communistic and cruel to all.
A Paul Harvey radio speech http://holytube.de/gute-predigten/if-i-were-the-devil-paul-harvey-warning-for-a-nation/
shows that in the 60’s
--when I was in high school -- conservatives had the same fears we have today
that our liberal direction is diabolical, weakening us, leading to
socialism (mild communism) which leads to financial ruin. The 60’s
were the beginning of the hippie “free love” era : “make love, not war”
–and a rise in drug use encouraged even by liberal profs.
An issue back then was union abuse –the way they were
thuggish in their strikes and protected truant and undiligent workers, shoddy
products, bad teachers and always voted for democrats.
My
husband got a bad impression of all the auto workers wanting him to give them
endless sick excuses and to even get them on disability when they really
weren’t verifiably sick. His uncle was a union boss and often met with
mafia types. I early on, growing up, got the idea that the
Democratic party was the greater evil of the 2 parties.
I grew up reading politics in Time and Life magazines
–would read the letters to the editor, etc. IT was great education to
strain to understand grown-up writing.
My parents, (lower middle class) taught me that people should
take care of themselves, study in school to get ahead and be responsible for
their own kin—and not expect the gov’t to do it for them by taking from those
who work to give to those who don’t. Of course, we all DO
believe in charity and gov’t aid for those who cannot work, or cannot
find work. But when a family gets $600 a month or so on a food card, they
do not want to give that up! When they also get $700 at least per month
for being “depressed,” as single mothers, and have a health card –they
don’t want to give that up for a job that pays them no more than what
their gov’t is giving them to not work. Of course, entry-level jobs
pay less than gov’t would for a single mom and 4 kids –so it seems she is
better off to stay on welfare until she gets them grown—(and I want them to
have those checks and cards) but what happens? Her kids do the same thing
–and here come more babies into the house. And so we go back to Uncle Sam
and ask for more money. We have too many people in this
situation –and morals are the reason! And gov’t enables.
It is the breakdown of marriage –and the complete lack of marriage
today –that causes a lot of our poverty. It’s not the rich being too
tight-fisted. It’s not
the fault of husbands who are happy if their wives stay home. In
fact, more husbands today WANT their wives to work outside the home and
think they are lazy if they don’t. Many men in black culture think it’s
the wife’s duty to be the breadwinner with Uncle Sam –they just spread their
seed and drop in from house to house and think the women should give THEM
money. I know people.
