Major Rant for April: Three types of people

The way I see it there are three types of people in the world.

The first are conservatives. These people expect themselves to do the right thing and for everybody else to do it too. A little simplistic but let me explain. They do not expect anyone to do things for them and believe themselves to be responsible enough to live their lives for their own families and not do it at the expense of others. They believe they should be able to keep what they earn and decide for themselves where they want their money to go. Yes, some get greedy and take advantage of situations, but they are not true conservatives, they are just wrong. Also not everybody does what's right all the time, but that is a product of our fallen nature and that why we have laws.

The second type are liberals. These people range from moderate to socialists. The idea here is to have such control of people's lives that much wealth goes into the "public" coffers where the ones in power can direct where it is spent. Also they do not believe you should be the one who gets to keep what you make. Indeed, if you make too much, (more than them), they will come after you and take as much of it as they can.

The third type are the sheep. These people think of themselves as liberals but fail to understand how things really work. To their credit they have big hearts and truly feel for the oppressed, downtrodden, and poor. They do not see that conservatives and especially Christians give more than anyone to charities. They are easily led by words that say "We will pass a law to make sure everybody gets what they deserve," In having the state control the wealth and distribute it, you create a very inefficient system because of the sheer size of the buracracy it takes to accomplish the goals.
