I hear a lot of rhetoric on helping the poor and those in need. The question you ask yourself in the middle of the information deluge is this- who is talking smoke and mirrors? Who really wants to help the poor?

Democrats argument- They want to help all poor by giving them free everything. Free is good- who can argue. The problem with this argument is that there is a catch. They will “help” you to get something free, not much but just enough to keep you wanting. But anything is good if you have nothing. But beware of the piper! He sings an enticing and enchanting song. What is the message behind the “charitable deeds”? If you are ever lifted out of poverty and begin to actually make money in this great country that gives an opportunity to all- the Democrats will come for you. They will take your money and your property and make you poor again. Listen to their message well. You cannot help others by breaking down the houses and lives that others built.

Simply put- teach a man to fish and he will be fed for life but give a man a fish and he will always be hungry!

Republicans under President Trump- doing the total opposite. They are not giving handouts but teaching the poor how to actually fish. To escape poverty you need to use your brain and your imagination to create something. This is an empowering message and if we are truly listening, we will make the smart choice.

Poverty is hell… we all know. But God has given us, especially in the USA, many opportunities to truly escape this hell.

Let us listen carefully and make the right choice for our country and our people. Let us truly help the poor by teaching them to fish. It will be a lesson that both empowers and uplifts.
