What stand would Christ take on the huge tax cuts of the Bush administration giving billions back to the ultra-rich while working single mothers with children can barely "survive" on minimum wage ($5.15 hr.) jobs?<BR>
<BR>
And if your answer is that he would have wanted to give some of those billions to the hard working deserving poor, rather than back to the ultra-rich, and/or raise the minimum wage, I don't care what path Christ would have taken to shed "labels," the Religious Right in the USA would plaster him with a big sign declaring him a "tax and spend liberal." Well, that is, unless they knew who he was, or who he was claiming to be, in which case they might label him a fraud, or actually be shamed into facing their betrayal of Christ's values.<BR>
<BR>
If your answer is that Christ would have approved of the Bush administration tax cuts, and all they imply, and/or that he would not advocate raising the minimum wage, I am wrong.<BR>
