So you are an admitted liberal and you aren't voting for the demonrat candidate.........you lying sack of shit. Let me guess you are a trump supporter lol.
You got whipped and proved the moron liar that you are.
Yep. And there are many on the left who mistakenly think that "render unto Caesar" was support for the state to tax however it pleases. The full context of the conversation was that his response was a clever way of avoiding being arrested. In short, he outsmarted some servants of the state.
Yes, I think Jesus would probably oppose what the Libertardians would call "big government," even if it was to help people. However, his stance on immigration was that we should help whoever comes to our land. He'd probably be against the wall and borders altogether because they gets in the way of people helping immigrants, even with that help being charity, not government assistance.
Of course, Christianity doesn't work in the real world, which is why so few societies tried this.
Bernie has watched multiple socialist countries fail including Venezuela, a country he recently touted as an example of how good it is. Failure after failure yet that man still pushes the system of government. So he is either dumb OR he has an evil agenda. Since he seems intelligent I'm leaning toward an evil personal agenda. This makes him a traitor to our great country. Honeymoon in Russia to start his life. Destroy russias enemy to end his life. Very dangerous man.
Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

If you're not against taxation then you shouldn't worry about taxing the mega rich to pay for social programs. It's something we can do, no miracles required. And when you say the illegals and the lazy, what percentage of recipients do you think you're talking about? And if you actually want to go with what the Jesus says and does, do you think he questioned the nature of the people he fed?
What social programs? Everyone knows if you start taxing the rich, you'll be taxing the middle class too.
Any minute percentage of illegals or career recipients is too much drain on our tax dollars.
Oh, and Jesus probably didn't question the nature of the people he fed, but Rome probably did.

Social programs as in welfare spending, the thing you claim is being wasted on the illegals and lazy.
Is this some sort of reference to trickle down economics? The middle class is far removed from the multi-billionaire class.
You say "too much" as if you know what it is. Do small amounts of waste justify massive cuts or outright ending the programs? And if you acknowledged the percent of waste is small, what does that say about the majority of social programs?
Rome didn't have a comparable welfare system to the modern US. When they gave bread to the poor it was to avoid class riots. But are you implying the US should be more like Rome and question the nature of recipients?
There is much waste and fraud in these programs, they should be evaluated.
Show one "tax on the rich" that hasn't included the middle class. They get hit one way or another.
Any waste is too much. Why do you justify waste? I say evaluate the programs and act accordingly. If there is waste, eliminate it.
Absolutely the nature of recipients should be questioned. Do you think anyone, regardless of legal and/or qualifying status, should be entitled to our tax dollars? I think not.

How much though? Because many have been evaluated, and it's not "much". https://getoutofdebt.org/47479/welfa...urbing-pattern
Any taxes on the middle class will be marginal compared to the taxes on the ultra rich. There's also savings to them as well depending on which program we're talking about.Show one "tax on the rich" that hasn't included the middle class. They get hit one way or another.
Waste is inevitable, there's never a guarantee of 100% efficiency. Yes we should not fund fraud or waste, but the massive cuts presented by the GOP are not a proportional response.Any waste is too much. Why do you justify waste? I say evaluate the programs and act accordingly. If there is waste, eliminate it.
It can be argued in some instances questioning the nature of recipients is a waste of money. https://thinkprogress.org/states-cos...-0fe9649fa0f8/Absolutely the nature of recipients should be questioned.
