Who
really supports welfare?

Edward Hayward on Friday, February 4, 2011
Democrats support localized social
welfare; they also support (generally speaking) foreign welfare. Republicans
support corporate welfare, and foreign welfare, though not in the same context as
Democrats. Both major parties support welfare, the difference only being to
whom the plundered money should go. True conservatives and libertarians
however, oppose the welfare warfare system, they also oppose corporatism.
Foreign welfare, whether intended for humanitarian or geopolitical reasons, is
wrong and immoral, especially when it comes before the welfare of ones own
country. It is not in our best interest to prop up dictators of foreign
nations, inciting massive hatred for America while going bankrupt borrowing the
money from China and the Federal Reserve.
Mainstream Republicans view it as
immoral to plunder one class of society to benefit another, yet they find it
reasonable to borrow money from competing nations to simply distribute it
throughout the world in an attempt to create profitable foreign relations,
especially when those relations benefit multinational corporations. Our foreign
policy is hardly based on our courtier’s well being, we are going bankrupt and
the world hates us!
While I would like to say that I
uniformly oppose all welfare, if forced to make a choice, I choose welfare for
American citizens before welfare that benefits multinational corporations and
foreign countries. America has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. We
need to stop spending money oversees donating and propping up dictatorships and
puppet governments. We need to stop funding both sides of every conflict in the
world, afterward providing humanitarian aid. We need to stop bailing out
corporations and start repealing regulations that limit small businesses
competition in the marketplace. Once we have done all this, then and only then
is it logical to address our broken health care system, and the system we have
created that perpetuates governmental dependency. Local welfare is a problem
and it is a problem that can be best addressed by encouraging social
interaction and civic involvement. We must restore power to local governments,
empowering the citizens of their local communities.
