You know damn well, many of those on the right want this, and believe the lies about the Founding Fathers wanting this, despite their being plainly opposed to any such nonsense.

Here's Indiana's Lt. Governor:

people are suffering because of this government shutdown. it is the Democrat Schumer shutdown. they are the ones taking full responsibility for it. um, you know, I think in the meantime, I think this is a great opportunity for the church, the local church to step up. it’s not the government’s job to feed people. nowhere in scripture do we see God calling the government to care for the sick, the orphan, the poor, the needy, the widow. that’s the church’s job. and so this is a great opportunity for the church of Jesus Christ in America to start acting like it, and to be ready to feed the hungry and welcome those those who need help.”

Nice sentiment? In reality total bullshit.

Didn't Bush #41 blather about a million blinky lights, or some such nonsense, to take the place of government assistance, so zillionaires like him can have more tax cuts?

I remember Saint Reagan telling people to "tithe", when his own charity donations fell far short of a "tithe" ie 10%.
