i am thankful for everyones thoughtful views on the subject. my only problem is the idea that if one is a capitalist they are greedy and unloving. i consider myself a compassionate capitalist that helps the poor with my own income and through my church. i dont believe government should force its citizens to be charitable. i dont make a lot of money but i dont want government over taxing others to give to me, i think thats legal theft. Jesus was not a socialist in the modern political sense, but he did teach his followers to be loving to all people and do everything possible to meet the needs of others. i do have a question though, obama says that healthcare is a moral issue and therefore should be passed. he also says that abortion is a moral issue but then says everyone should have thier own choice in the matter. so if a women kills her baby through abortion she's not considered evil but if i dont want to support a public option i am now evil. what happened to my choice?
