The Moral Mondays movement in Raleigh seeks to call attention to the (apparently) immoral actions of the Republican led NC legislature. They object to the legislature's effort to allow taxpayers to keep more of their own money. It must be moral for the government to seize money from citizens and fund various welfare programs. How dare the government stop taking so much money to give to other people?
The government is the bully who can take away and give to anyone he wishes. When the bully considers stealing less, the beneficiaries scream, and enlist others to scream for them. It seems to be motivated by selfishness, the very characteristic the beneficiaries condemn in others.
The real irony is the Moral Monday demand that abortions not be restricted. How can terminating the life of unborn children be considered moral? It seems that their standard for morality is that which makes their lives easier. No wonder moral standards vary.
