Can’t say enough about your courageous stand here, Kevin.

That’s the whole point, no party is perfect, so why is each party pointing the finger at each other. The Bible teaches that polictical parties donr work, that they in the end begin to take on the personalities of the people running them.

And you are right about forced giving, it is to be done with a cheerful heart as God says.

Lastly, why is it that everyone who cannot understand the want for personal freedom attacks versus argues? Your entire post was an attack based falsely in “scripture.”

There is a difference between charity, and forced giving.

Jeuse also said, you saw that I was hungry and you feed me, you saw I that was thirsty and you gave me drink.

There is nothing coversative about teaching a man to fish, that’s common sense, and that existed long before any polictical party.

Oh, he also said, I am my brother’s keeper.

Luke 6:41

And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye? Or how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye?

40 years ago the republican party gave power by adpoting the racist ways of the south. So the party is now what them democractic party use to be.

Luke 6:41 continued:

Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother’s eye.

The point I was making about reservations was, that they shouldn’t been there in the first place and whatever the government offers them is because of guilt and the fact they stole their land and kill their people.

There is a reason certain groups get handouts and other groups don’t. And when it comes to excuses of the past no one talks more of what they use to help blacks help themselves then republicans.

And when it comes to discrimination, well the gay republicans both black and white can tell you a few things about that in the republican party.

I should been more clearer about the prisons:

Am sure you know what the 13th Amendment of the U.S. Consititution says, if not here you go:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, EXCEPT as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. Dec. 6 1865

Now the employment of prisoners by private companies, illegal for many years, was again made legal in the mid 1970s, These companies, and I will list them later, pay about the same or less for labor as they would in Mexico.

Prisons and Corporations are very reluctant. To release details but in 1993, about 1000 prisoners were working for private companies, by 98, 2500 prisoners were working for 135 private corporate companies.

Now these companies have stock that you can buy, which is wny I said every black man in jail makes money for wallstreet. How they got there is another comment.

Privates Companies that benefit from free labor:
TWA, IBM, MCDONALDS, MOTOROLA, COMPAQ,TOYS R US, TEXAS INSTRUMENTS, AT&T, DELL, REVLON, KAISER STEEL, EDDIE BAUER, MICROSOFT, BOEING, VICTORIA’S SECRET, HONEYWELL, PIERRE CARDIN, NORDSTROM, MCI, JOSTENS, 3COM, NORTEL.

Now am sure you have seen this in your state. Cheaper and faster, I notice you said nothing about the private sector sending jobs over seas, how American of them, and am sure you know about the money they stash over seas to avoid paying taxes.

Oh yes, poor people should really look up to these compaines, learn how to cheat the system the legal way.

Of the country’s 2 million prisoners, more than 111,000 are in prisons of the 18 private prison corporations. The two largest are Corrections Corporation of America and Wackenhut.

Wackenhut has 52 prisons, more than 26,000 prisoners,
CCA, 81 prisons, more than 71,000 prisoners,

Let’s see, in American we have more prisons than school, more people in jail, mostly male and of color, but am sure it cause they all voted democract, than any country in the world. Prison is big business, big private sectoe business and I wonder which party or parties are benefiting.

And most of the prisoners came from poverty, communites where they are no jobs, what is republican party doing to bring jobs to the black community?

And just like rich people, poor people have to live too, but all people from all classes committs crime, the rich are just better at not getting caught at it, and if its illegal, pay a politican to make it legal.

So the moral is, do the crime, do the time, some ceo gets richer of your free labor.
