Bob what if you give money to a "poor" person and they are finally able to buy that suit for that interview. They end up getting the job and are able to get off the street and move into a house. I also don't understand why would label a person who gives money a democrat.

Should we give money to the poor? No. It seems that it is the American way to sprinkle money on those unfortunate ones and turn our backs. I am a little unclear on how to define "poor" but I will just go along with the stereo type. A poor person should be given opportunity and hope to succeed. Whatever it takes for them to see,feel this I am all for. If they do not accept the help and want to continue to live in poverty then fuck em.

I agree with you a sentence in your last paragraph Karin about "bigger drain on us to NOT help them than it is to try and do what we can".


under construction....
