Our senseless and wicked thoughts mislead us. Recognize that we are punished by the very things through which we sin (Wisdom 11:15,16). The war on poverty was not successful! Ghettoes and slums still exist which is of course second class housing, schools and healthcare at best. A job paying $25 an hour cannot overcome imposed poverty. Why not put resources into these areas to make them model communities?
So ease up and wise up to what Jesus says in Matthew 7:9-12: 9 "Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! 12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets."
