[Veritas et equitas ad Votum]

I am fully aware that there are human beings in Louisiana who "need help" to use your words.

I happen to believe in the notion that people ought to help themselves. I am willing to help as a private individual as I see fit, however I don't believe there is a grey area when it comes to using the force of government to redistribute wealth.

You know, one could say that infants are in greater "need" than the people of New Orleans since infants are totally helpless. At least the homeowners and grown people of New Orleans are physically capable of taking care of themselves.

Does this mean that I should go along with WIC and food stamps? According to your theory, and that of Karl Marx, we the government exists to give property to those in the greatest need. Therefore, infants are by definition in the greatest need, so we should give them the most.

Let me ask you this. If you were burying your spouse or child, would it upset you if I asked you about the Texas Rangers game while your loved one is being interred?

At least the homeowners and grown people of New Orleans are physically capable of taking care of themselves.

You are quite foolish.
