Theodore Roosevelt on Welfare
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I am featuring a real American President in President Theodore Roosevelt who faced exactly in the beginning of the 20th century the same problems of defense, welfare and immigration, which America has been plunged into.
Unlike the Obama regime though of foreign bias, President Roosevelt based all he advocated with Congressional bills and not executive orders, all in being pro American.
I add this, as a caveat against the mic head Mark Levin, whose cut and paste bookery and micery, quotes Burke and whatever else no one ever reads, and then goes on to attack President Richard Nixon and President Theodore Roosevelt.
Who needs Ed Schultz when you Mark Levin spreading propaganda of the cartel?
Yes the Mark Levin who ridiculed Birthers and kept Barry Obama in the White House in the most heinous Constitutional crook in American history only has problems with Richard Nixon.
On President Theodore Roosevelt, the Mark Levin charge is that TR was a socialist, which of course is another lie as explained in President Roosevelt's own words and policies.
Here is the Theodore Roosevelt quote on welfare:
"When all is said and done, the rule of brotherhood remains as the indispensable prerequisite to success in the kind of national life for which we strive.
Each man must work for himself, and unless he so works no outside help can avail him; but each man must remember also that he is indeed his brother's keeper, and that while no man who refuses to walk can be carried with advantage to himself or anyone else, yet that each at times stumbles or halts, that each at times needs to have the helping hand outstretched to him.
To be permanently effective, aid must always take the form of helping a man to help himself; and we can all best help ourselves by joining together in the work that is of common interest to all."
Theodore Roosevelt. Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents
What President Theodore Roosevelt promoted was something called Christian Charity, as the real Messiah, Jesus the Christ, thee only begotten Son of God taught.
The President advocated caring about each other on a national scale. Each person was to work to care for themselves as job creation in the private sector was Government policy. This produces self esteem in the person and the nation in people being independent and having self worth by accomplishment.
Those who have lost their jobs, become injured or other mishaps like a factory burning down, would have assistance with the purpose of gaining them immediate employment again.
The American policy was of having the person help themselves.
If you can find socialism in that or anything which is not Ronald Reagan America, your brain must be as half wit as Mark Levin's.
In simplicity we have now witnessed President Theodore Roosevelt dealing simply and effectively with welfare and immigration.
That is what Conservative American Presidents do in Christian Virtue.
