Republican
economic programs are a direct affront to social ethics.
Material
poverty makes life an intense suffering. The economies of the poor mean they
even lack the minimum needed for a human life to be worthy of the name
humanity. Poverty means death. Poverty is the death of the mind, the body and
the soul. Individuals, classes, nations, and all of humanity are diminished by
poverty. A single hungry child diminishes the humanity of us all. Poverty is
the under-riding political issue of the day. Wealth feeds on poverty. Wealth is
the carrion-eating scavenger, which feeds on the entrails of the destitute.
