| Message | And by giving the parents and endless supply of money obtained from other people is supposed to make them any more responsible? The Truth Party seems to be under the delusion that charities only exist to make people look busy. Charities are focused in their care. They have within them the volunteers who choose to be there and other workers that are specialised to help those in need. Why do they need to be government volunteers/workers? Why is it that the government is always burdened to the poor? I suggest that anyone feeling so compelled to correct poverty should involve themselves in that work instead of people like the Socialists having people believe that the reason they are poor is because of the government. Take your money and donate it to charities, take your time and dedicate it to the assistance of others. Picketing the government to do your charity work helps no-one and only wastes time and resources better dedicated to direct solutions. |
