Liberals are greedy and uncaring

I feel the same way. It's all about exercising some class. Talking about how much you give is no different than talking about how much you have. They are both traits of the nouveau riche', which as a group don't always exhibit classy behavoir. I would much rather see someone be inconspicuous as far as charity is concerned.

I believe the point is that the liberal line is that they care more about the poor and conservatives hate the poor. It's obviously an untruth. This is some data showing that conservatives are quite generous when it comes to helping those less fortunate.

Ultimately, the ideological difference is in the method of helping the less fortunate not that one group "cares" more or less.

I don't love the GOP or the Dems, but I wish we could get over the buying votes. Life's hard and some times it isn't pretty, but I should bare the burden of my choices that make me successful or unsuccessful and not the state.

Not a thing. But the discussion was about Liberals being less giving.

The majority of the donations, I would be willing to bet, constitue church tithes as opposed to direct community center/shelter donations. From my seats tithes go to who can build the biggest church and pay their pastor the most. The note that Bush, who wore his faith on his sleeve and wouldn't have got elected with pandering to the Jesus crowd happened to win in states where giveing was highest (ie, churchgoers) doesn't surprise me one bit.

Nice try.

Nice generalization made their without any data, from your "seats" no doubt.

My seat, in a church, helps fund a local food bank, missionaries overseas and feeding people , building schools & churches in Africa & most recently the Dump in The Phillipines. This is where thousands live and scavange out of the nearby cities refuge for food every day...i know there is church abuse of funds but dont generalize a minority into all.The libs have been doing that for too long.
here is a couple stories about the dumps if anyone interested.http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...mp-making-a-difference-in-manila-1743369.html

Standard Operating Procedure for the politics forum.

I probably pass 8 massive, mega churches on my daily errand runs, half of which are in perpetual expansion with contruction and add-ons. So, from my seats, yes...I wonder what % of tithes go to charity, and what % go to a pissing contest on who can build the biggest church on the block.

I suspect many a camel will pass through the eye of a needle come judgement day.

The point of the OP is liberals are greedy, which is obviously an untruth.

No it isn't.

Throw the rest of this stuff out the window... and the very FACT that liberals think they are so morally superior as to force others to give their property to someone else is incredibly "greedy".

If you think enough is not being done then give more of your own... get a second job and give that to those you want supported. Keep your "greedy" fingers out of the pockets of others and stop demanding they fund things that you want that they may not.

That's odd. I remember a fairly recent thread where argued this ad nauseum.

I've never said they hate poor people. The wealthy are a mite too interested in preserving their wealth for my thinking, and they by and large manage to get away with some trickeration when it comes to manipulating the tax code, but that's out of understandable self interest, not because they hate anyone.

Its not personal.

Right. This is why the free market is the solution. Would you rather deal with business owners who satisfy their greed by providing the economy with products and services that we want to voluntarily purchase, or politicians and bureaucrats who satisfy their greed at the expense of the taxpayer, by force? There's nothing charitable about taking from one and giving to another. Socialists aren't very charitable with their own money. That should tell you something.
