Hey fella, I agree with your comments as well.  Be careful with your
attributions.  Don't you think it's possible for a free society to
meet its humanitarian obligations?  What country takes better care of
its poor than the US?  China?  Iraq?  N. Korea (ha haha,starving its
people in order to build nuclear weapons)?

We hardly know what poverty is in this country.  I'm not a right
winger, I'm not a republican or anything close to it.  I have real
problems with the accumulation of excess wealth, but those are moral
problems.  I haven't seen any political system which can deal with
those problems.  THey can only be dealt with by an educated public.
You can't save people from themselves.  Educate them, and they might
be able to make the right decisions though.
