I'm curious about that statement. In your tag line you have a Bible verse. I'm going to assume you are a Christian. so, you well know, that as Christians we are to look after others BEFORE we look after ourselves. That is true love. Now, of course that has nothing to do with government. The we I am talking about is you and me.
Exactly. We take care of family first, because that is our first duty, then those around us beyond the family. I don't depend on the government to do my duty for me. For me it's a holy obligation that I accept.
I pray and do what I can.
This is how I was raised, how I try to act, and how I have tried to raise my kids.
