Wrong. As a society we have spent TRILLIONS of dollars on the war on poverty. All it has done is create a leeching dependent class of people that breed more leeching depending children. 
I think we need to cut off all aid for 1.5 generations and let nature correct itself. [/quote]

I hope that you don't consider yourself a Christian.

Are you?  Should we all pray for less gun downs and illiterate kids?  Can't be the parents fault. It can't be the inner city mentality's fault. Can't be the child's fault. Can't be the school systems fault?  [/quote]
DP... as a Christian, this is really sad to read.  I think there's plenty of "fault" to go around, but, do we just turn our backs on kids?  Doesn't this just become a cycle of poverty and crime?  You will end paying for incarcerating these kids when they get older, and the cost to incarcerate someone is much more than spending the tax dollars on preventative measures like quality preK, childcare and such.  You are very shortsighted and only care about punishing people rather than helping them.  That's the antithesis of the message of Christ.

I like what this one nun said... [paraphrasing] if you don't want to use tax dollars to help feed and educate kids, but you are against abortion, then you are pro-birth, not pro-life, and I question your morality.[/quote]
