Re: Poverty and "luxury items" - a discussion

[iceyred]

Yes. Yes, entitlement does lead to poverty. 'I want the thing and I'm going to buy it even though I can't afford it and then others will provide for my needs.' Leads to poverty. I have seen this in my own family, in friends, classmates, customers, constituents, on tv specials, in the news, etc. I see it every time I turn around.

I haven't been talking about charity. I've been talking about public money and welfare. How/if/when/do I support charities is my own business. I choose what charities get my money/time and I do that based on how they spend it.

I have no choice about paying taxes, but I do have a right to be annoyed that my tax dollars don't go to helping people survive, but instead towards things they don't need.

You're crying that I'm selfish because I don't want to support irresponsible behavior. You're bawling that I'm not Catholic because I have boundaries about what I will and will not support. What you really mean is that I'm a bad person because you're not getting your own way.

Matthew 6:25-34 is a great quote. You should take it to heart and stop demanding people give you their money.
