You have just made the case for world government. The Progressives have taken over the US on exactly that argument - taking care of the poor. Let's review how good of a job they have done in the ensuing 100 years, especially in places like Detroit. No matter. The argument is that you and I will not try to do enough to help all of those starving poor so they must muster the power of government to fill the gap that our "disinterest" creates.

By the way, you have given up all say in what your government does because your side lost the election. Complete capitulation is required. If they had chariots, they would tie us all together and drag us through the streets of Washington to demonstrate their triumph, in true Roman fashion.

Baloney on all accounts. It is the govt themselves that have cause the majority of human suffering where it is greatest. They steal from the people, burn their fields, and leave the leftovers for the dogs. The UN, please, what have they done to stop the sufferieng in N. Korea not a blessed thing. What have they done to stop the ethnic cleansing in Africa, nada. What have they done to help the plight of women in Islamic countries, worse than nothing. I give to charities that actually do what they say and try to help people. The UN's help is worse than no help whatsoever because their help is inept, corrupt, and comes with nasty string attached (we give your leaders money which they will steal--propping them up and keeping them in power-- and we get to try out a cool new vaccine on your kids). I give to charities that are actually effective at helping the poor and needy.

We lost one national election. Happily in this country we hope there will be more....if there is not...it is not just the unborn that are in danger of being ripped limb from limb it is all of us. Slavery was legal in this country for a century, the other side lost many elections too. Should that side have shut up? I will not ever capitulate on this. I am simply incapable of doing do.
