American Not Helping Americans is Unpatriotic

[Tim Bonney]

The kind of language William uses "redistributionism" or whatever, is the same kind of language conservative Republicans like to use, semantics and political buzz words to basically say, "I'd rather let my fellow Americans go hungry in the US rather than use my tax money to feed poor people who are also US citizens."

Yet Republicans are always calling Democrats and liberals "unpatriotic" when we want to lower military spending to pay for social needs, or when we want to keep them from owning assault rifles with armor piercing bullets so that they can blow a deer to smithereens.

Well IMHO the most unpatriotic thing we can do in this country is not help fellow Americans when they are in need.

Of course some of these same Republicans are the same folks who wanted to cede from the union when they lost the election to Obama. Well, anyone who is willing to break up the USA because they lost an election better just drop "patriot" from their vocabulary because they aren't one.
