I love private charity more than I despise sanitized redistribution through government welfare that goes beyond safety nets and corporate gifting. I’d prefer lower taxes and prices.

And so, it warms the heart to hear of cops reaching into their wallets to help kids who exceeded their $100 limit in Jackson County’s Shop with a Cop program. My complaints are that kids are buying toys when they supposedly have no food in the home. Second of all, sworn law enforcement officers are replacing moms as the nurturers of society because moms have to be the breadwinners, but they can’t do that because their income is used to buy health insurance instead of food. Dad of course, has flown the coop because there are too many hot poor chicks dressed to kill to settle down with just one. On the bright side, if cops keep shopping and playing dolls with poor children, they won’t be on the street putting men in jail, the surplus driving the cost of marriage down . . . . . . .
