[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The climate that we are in has made me feel like I (and everyone else) has lost all empathy and sympathy.  I see natural disasters and instead of immediately thinking how I can help and how bad I feel for these people instead I think - well that sucks. Too bad there isn't FEMA to help you and most likely you voted for that.

When I see people whose health insurance premiums have been raised 100% I don't feel empathy I just think - well you should get a job that gives you good health insurance.

Basically I have become a Republican who thinks everyone should "pull themselves up by their bootstraps and figure it out themselves".  I can't force any sympathy or empathy anymore for people who vote for this to happen to themselves. Its hard to think good Christian thoughts for people who are fake Christians.  [/quote]

i am Republican and any time I see natural disaster, I immediately find the ways to help people in need. When I see people who's health insurance have been raised, I only feel empathy for those who did not understood this when ACA was implemented. This was a recepie for disaster, everyone understood this that it will not be sustainable in a long run. Regardless, I am now helping to pay for health insurance for Ukrainian woman and her little girl. They are refugees from Ukraine and would not be able to afford it otherwise. Maybe you can find one person and help them instead? No one is seeking your sympathy or empathy. People who are in need seek actual help. Why not to help them?[/quote]
