As to Cam's moronic tag that "socialism is the essence of love," The problem with socialism is that some ruling elite decides which class is to be a privileged class of takers and which to be givers. I don't think it is fair that I should work and pay for the food, shelter and medical care of someone who sits on his ass, smokes crack, and sleeps all day. I don't think it is fair that someone should vote how much of my income should be confiscated by taxation and given to another as a reward for their indolence.
Socialism is not love. It is theft from the productive and a reward for the indolent.
As to those who are unable to care for themselves, because of injury or illness, then society should care for them.
I bow down to you, almighty 2X6. I thought
_I_ was the best at derailing a thread, but this is off the charts!
