David Cay Johnston wrtopte a book Free Lunch which tells us about how the wealthiest Americans enrich themselves at the government expense (and stick us with the bill). We have a growing economy yet qwe have job uncertainty (just ask honest hard working government employees who have lost their jobs) , debt )our national debt has just been reported to be the greatest it has ever been–so much for Trumps tariffs and the loss of manufacturing jobs), bankruptcies (today it is difficult for families making $100,000 to make ends meet), Didn’t Trump campaign on bringing down prices? where did that go?! Under new regulations a whole set of regulations went intpo effect that thwart competition, depress wages, and reward misconduct. Rememer Trump’s Great big “Bad” bill that took medicaid and food stamps away from our most needy citizens just so he could give tax breaks for the richest of the rich in America.
To quote Mr. Johnstop,”No good can come from undermining the legitimacy of property, but much damage can be done by abusing the coercive power of government to take from those who have less to benefit those who have more. Remember the Biblical quote: For as much as you have done it unto the least of these you have done it unto me.” Trump and the Republicans in our congress may fool us and especially the MAGA crowd bu they cannot fool God and I’d hate to be in tjeir shoes when they stand before our maker and try to explain themselves. They will not be able to fool God.
