[Grovenet] Service

[David Morelli]

I just listened to a speaker at the Republican National Convention  
talking about service, and she said "some candidates have more  
experience with 'service' than others."

I guess she believes that people doing military service at war in  
foreign countries, somehow are doing more 'service' than social  
service improving the lives of Americans in the cities of this  
country.  Different yes.  Dangerous yes. More?  Hmmm?

The same speaker said, "Government is not a philanthropic  
organization, government is not the family, and government certainly  
is not the church.  Republicans realize that when you keep more of  
your money you are able to choose which charities you should spend  
your money."

There is truth in that statement.  And I can be said that Republicans  
want you to be able to keep 'what is yours'.  With some exceptions.

Republicans want you to keep what is yours, unless it is your job.   
Then you to be able to have lower taxes, on your unemployment payments.

Republicans want you to keep what is yours, unless it is your  
retirement package.  Then it can be sold and dismantled.

Republicans want you to keep what is yours, unless it is your home.   
Then they want the banking industry to may a profit over your loss.
