Obama's Ill gotten Billions!

Obama and his ilk, getting millions of dollars to spend willy-nilly is a mouth dropping, insane idea fraught with peril.  Any monies spent by government devalues the dollars that you and I work for, earn and sweat for by the labor we expend.  Working for free has another name. 

Social conservatives need to remember their Bibles specifically in two areas. 1. Jesus parable about paying the workmen what they said they would and paying in a timely fashion every day.  And 2. The borrower is a slave to the lender.

Except in this case government gift money is even worse than a loan it's free!  A lump of money quickly gotten and all that.

Social and fiscal conservatives focus on two sides of the same coin. 

A social conservative is concerned about abortion, and other issues where the government is pushing for death.

A fiscal conservative is concerned about the money being spent correctly and the money being collected fairly and with the least, if any, impact.

But what I have discovered is there is common ground between the two.

Both social and fiscal conservatives are against stealing.  Both social and fiscal conservatives feel that good honest work is the cure for any economic downturn.

Both social and fiscal conservatives feel that the government has limitations on it's power.  (You can't take our Bibles and you can't take our Guns, and you can't take but so much of our money.)

Some wide tent folks feel that social conservatives are a pariah, some social conservatives think that a little government spending won't hurt anybody.  Well you are both wrong.

Abandoning principles and ideas that are correct and dredging up new ones and calling evil good and calling good evil will get you in the heavenly "old sparky" even before eternity!

Social conservatives listen (I am one) fiscal conservatives are right.  It is evil for the government to have taxes higher than what Jesus said.  What did He say?  Simple he said "render unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's and unto God what is God's".  God is all about money and spending it right.  The tithe is 10%.  The government should not get as much as God. Period. 

So the government should live within it's means period and if that means that lots of people have to pray to God for help because the government is no longer stealing money across America well that's the way it should be.  Calling on God instead of calling on the government  IS what social conservatives should be about--Thou shalt have no other Gods before me-- sound familiar?  Well in a nutshell that is the crux of the matter.  That is the meeting point between fiscal and social conservatives.

Any liberal or moderate attempt to obscure this is insanity.  Just because a few hundred companies fail there is no reason to quickly move to install the liberal baal on every hill and mountain to bow down and worship at the altar of government. 

Government is not the be all and end all of human existence.  In fact it is simply a fact not unlike the toilet paper holders in our bathrooms.  And Government is a poor, poor, wretched substitute of a loving, gracious, almighty God.
