“Mean spirited and callous and heartless. These are the terms the Democrats use to describe the welfare proposals moving through the House currently. As a former mayor of Charlotte who has seen firsthand the damage done by the welfare system over the years, I prefer the words responsibility, freedom, and compassion. Responsibility to be allowed to work and freedom to get off of welfare, compassion, caring, helping. We had programs in our city that were innovative and they allowed people to take pride in themselves once again. We can do that through the proposals being offered by the Republican system that is currently underway now. Self-sufficiency is the key, not dependency.”
