I agree with one of our founders who said charity should never come from the Government. I will give you a good example why. I know someone that is visibly shaken by the fact that OSHA fined him $6,000.00 for whatever reason they need. He was making payments in the amount of $300.00 a month. As punishment for not getting it payed down fast enough to keep them happy, they raised it to $14,000.00 just because they can. In the mean time, his taxes lapsed and now he is in debt to our Government to the tune of $86,000.00. The man is visibly shaking and I would be too if the heavy hand of Government were coming down on me like that. He is a poor working man just like most of us. In the name of charity, his monies are in the process of beening confiscated to help poeple that are probably better off than he is. Does this make sense? I think not. And now we as a people have asked for more of this kind of opression in the form of Socialism. The next time you see people like the fellow I've just discussed, look at yourselves and imagine you are self employed and the government is after you. All I want from my Government is to be left alone. Provide for the common defense. I will take care of my neighbor just like we all should do. Charity starts with individuals not almighty Government.
