Please quote the entire sentence I wrote: "You aren't the moral arbiter of what the rest of us can do with our resources" - and the context was financial resources.

No, I don't tell people how they should spend their money, especially when I know nothing about their personal circumstances.

I do call them on making obviously racist assumptions on threads here.

There are a lot of us who value Free Republic for the good in it, but aren't going to sit by and just accept, with no comment, obvious racism.

FR isn't a 'hive mind'.

Unfortunately these types of threads draw racist comments like a moth to a flame. I expect some of that is due to ignorance, upbringing, etc.

Thanks for calling it out.

” I don’t tell people how they should spend their money”

I do because it is my right. I can’t control what they do but I can give my opinion. And it is the right opinion.
I live in Appalachia where almost everyone is white and we are eat up with people on SNAP and food stamps. They got them a cash business so they can keep The Disability and still afford that $45k pickup truck with the loud exhaust.
