"It's amazing to me how many people think that voting to have the government 
give poor people money is compassion. Helping poor and suffering people is 
compassion. Voting for our government to use guns to give money to help poor 
and suffering people is immoral self-righteous bullying laziness.

People need to be fed, medicated, educated, clothed, and sheltered, and if 
we're compassionate we'll help them, but you get no moral credit for forcing 
other people to do what you think is right. There is great joy in helping 
people, but no joy in doing it at gunpoint." - Penn Jillette, August 16, 
2011.
