So though the Lord says the love of money is the root of all evil, the Sombrero says money is everything, that about right? Every man can't be a king, but every man can live a life of honor. There is nothing oppressive or lowly about working with one's hands for a living, especially in this country, where the most basic existence is regal in comparison to other lands. The Lord was a carpenter as I recall, and didn't even have a place to lay His head at night; Matthew 8:20 (KJV)
20 "And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head." And He said; 'the poor you will always have.'

Here is what I say. The ladder of success is a hard climb, whether for the farmer or the financier. That is the natural way of things. But the liberal, now there is an enigma for you. The liberal would circumvent the rungs of that ladder and merely build (using taxpayer dollars) an escalator so everybody who didn't feel like working could just ride to the top. You're in the Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren wing of the party?

Didn't Jesus say "sell all of your possessions and follow me". Jesus spent more time talking about wealth than any other subject, including but not limited to Heaven or Hell. Sounds a lot like Bernie to me! Of course, in some versions of the Bible or people who quote the Bible for their own prosperity Jesus just spoke about homosexuals, coal jobs, and abortions and that is about it. Here is the challenge, bet you a diet pepsi, you count the times Jesus talks about wealth compared to the above subjects, and list the number of times Jesus talked about them and I will say that wealth is mentioned more... any takers?
