Our Greatest Moral Failure
In Just a Thought, December 18th, 2008
What do you consider to be our greatest moral failure as a country?
Our president elect recently responded, “We don’t provide enough to the underprivileged”
An interesting slight to the proven generosity of the American people and provides a real insight into the differences between the liberal and conservative definition of generosity. A recent survey revealed that the people living in states considered conservative give three times as much as a percent of income to charity as those living in liberal states.
When a liberal criticizes America for not being generous, what they mean is the tax code isn’t taking enough from some citizens to distribute to others.
At some point forced generosity becomes counterproductive and will kill the golden goose.
