People often cite the general welfare clause of the Constitution (more often than not, from the preamble) to justify government giving money to people and organizations. It is used as well by those in Congress to rationalize legislation that falls outside the authority granted it by the Constitution. This clause is sorely misunderstood, and if we are to right our country, we must provide people a proper perspective. https://curetsky.substack.com/p/we-the-peoplein-order-topromote-the

Embracing Realism with an Attitude of Pessimism and a Foreboding Sense of Fatalism We perceive our civic challenge as some vast, insoluble Rubik’s Cube. Behind each problem lies another problem that must be solved first, and behind that lies yet another, and another, ad infinitum. To fix crime we have to fix the family, but before we do that we have to fix welfare, and that means fixing our budget, and that means fixing our civic spirit, but we can’t do that without fixing moral standards, and that means fixing schools and churches, and that means fixing the inner cities, and that’s impossible unless we fix crime. There’s no fulcrum on which to rest a policy lever. People of all ages sense that something huge will have to sweep across America before the gloom can be lifted – but that’s an awareness we suppress. As a nation, we’re in deep denial. https://www.theburningplatform.com/2024/01/16/embracing-realism-with-an-attitude-of-pessimism-and-a-foreboding-sense-of-fatalism/

This is a strong argument for the return to the limited government envisioned by our founding fathers. "High taxation is a covert way to gradually phase out the system of private ownership. The end result of high taxation is the same as the state ownership and “egalitarianism” imposed by communist regimes, with the only difference being whether nationalization is effected before or after production. In the West, production is controlled privately, but the revenue is converted into state assets via taxes and redistribution schemes. This wealth-taking is achieved legally through democracy and legislation rather than through killing and violence. An important feature of the communist or socialist economics seen in Western countries is robust social welfare, which is used to gradually erode moral wisdom and freedom. While some government aid is reasonable — such as social security for victims of disasters or accidents — it is easy for welfare to become a convenient instrument of deception. Its positive aspects become the excuse for increasing taxes and government control. In this regard, generous welfare has already achieved the same destructive consequences for people, society, and moral values as do overtly communist economics, without a need for violent revolution..."

Migrants Imploding Welfare State: People are coming to America for a better life at your expense. The excuse that migrants came here to work and contribute to our society does not match the statistics. https://www.theburningplatform.com/2023/11/14/migrants-imploding-welfare-state/

When we lived in Oregon, they automatically registered you (as a Demoncrat) when you came into the DMV to get your license or change your plates from another state. You didn't even know they did it. Just found out later. They did now ask if you would like them to do this or tell you they could do this for you as you registered for any driving things. They just did it! https://americanfaith.com/blue-states-automatically-register-welfare-recipients-to-vote/?email=happybears1891%40reagan.com&utm_source=carrier-crow&utm_medium=email&utm_id=iaqZMIjRJU

I am obliged to tell you that God does not need anything you have. He does not need a dime of your money. It is your own spiritual welfare at stake in such matters as these. You have the right to keep what you have all to yourself – but it will rust and decay, and ultimately ruin you. AW Tozer

Lack of joy reveals itself in three ways: in negative thoughts and talk about others, in a lack of concern for their welfare, and in the failure to intercede on their behalf. Joyless believers are self-centered, selfish, proud, and often vengeful, and their self-centeredness inevitably manifests itself in prayerlessness. ~John MacArthur
