I'm not even on welfare but we struggle at times and I had a very wealthy person tell me we should only have 1 car since I'm a SAHM. Mind you, I live outside the city and technically every vehicle we have except 1 (9 years old) is for my husband's business. Also the person saying it is married to an insurance exec, also a SAHM and they have a BMW, Mercedes and Porsche in their garage. (At least 2 of which are "company cars&quot

What is it with the right that they don't realize that most of what they have is probably more due to good fortune than hard work? Why are they so unable to walk a mile in the average man's shoes let alone those who've hit a rough patch? And you know most of these people call themselves Christians!
