We should evaluate how people became poor, not just lump them all together. A lot of people rather live on free handouts as opposed to acquire skills and work.

I don't see how the the left is helping the sick. Frankly less people would be sick if they just took better care of themselves. Its poor people that primarily drink, smoke, become obese, do drugs, etc. They're a big drain and many contribute nothing.

There are many Christians on the left as well... for the record. That's why Obama was anti gay marriage in the first 4 years.

My god this is ignorant. you realise poor people do that because there poor. Imagine you had nothing and your government provided no help at all, your going to resort to crime, drugs etc. but if there is good government support. I mean ofcourse your always going to have unmotivated and "bad" people but thats a part of life not everyone wants to work. its proven the countries with the best government support are the happiest like eastern europe etc. inequality is a bad thing. 

if a rich person has to pay a bit more all they really lose is abit of temper and have a whinge if poor people lose support much worse.

 

Edit - I completely misread your comment as saying that poor people are useless and a burden on society so my bad but thats my opinion to people who think strongly like that
