Any progressive doesn't want to see anyone homeless.

And yes, it is important where the money comes from. Religions (there, I said the word) have not been able to make the kind of difference that government can make.

Before Social Security, the largest population of poor in this country were the elderly. Now it's totally different, thanks to Democrats and the Great Society. Where were the churches when the elderly were poor? Handing out baskets and blankets, but certainly not providing checks for them every month.

Yes, churches do good, and they should. But seeing leeches like Pat Robertson living in luxury while CHILDREN are homeless and suffering is something that should make Jesus' blood boil. Faith-based funding didn't work. We need across the board help for these people. FROM GOVERNMENT. Now you're on ignore.
