Some pithy and accurate thoughts on the compassionate state being crafted by our friends on the Left: Statist redistribution depends upon coercion and violence, pure and simple. It is not love, it is not compassion, and it cannot be supported by appeals to all the Christian happy words. Put the guns away, and then let’s talk about Christian concern for the poor. I believe the State can play an important role in the construction of a safety net by encouraging charity and promoting local, community organization and problem solving (ex: tax exemptions for non-profits). However, this is not the same kind of thing as heavy handed market demolition, reconstruction, and monetary redistribution ala Obamacare (etc).
