The former billionaire, who inherited a coal mining business from his father, presides over a state where 29% of residents are on Medicaid
When Senator Jim Justice of West Virginia was asked about the Senate Republicans’ newly released portion of the proposed spending bill that requires parents of children older than 14 to work for Medicaid, he said, “biblically, we are supposed to work.”
Tell that to your lazy ass donors
It’s weird how Christian dominionists never mention the Jubilee. You’re supposed to forgive all debts every seven (edit: 7 sets of 7, 49) years, and you can’t really own land - God does.
The only parts they read in Leviticus are the ones about killing gays though.
They certainly skipped 18? 19? where it directs people to treat foreigners in your land like the native born.
That verse you posted said 7x7 years, so every 49 years, with one year off after, so a 50 year cycle. Then I guess they “buy” land throughout the next 50 year cycle based on how many years remain. Ie, if it’s 25 years into the cycle, the price for a field might be half off. Not a terrible system really, for the age. At the end of the cycle, it all goes back to the “clan” to be resold again.
Great, then he should have no problem voting to strip himself and his fellow congressmen of their 100% government funded healthcare.
The face of hard work:
He looks dead and soulless behind that veneer smile.
Why aren’t these rich assholes able to buy cloths that fit?
I know it’s a side issue to their evil, but it doesn’t make any sense.
“I’m going to wear an expensive suit, but you’re too poor for me to allow you to take my measurements”
He’s at an age where his body is changing rapidly in unexpected ways. It will happen to you, again.
yeah and “biblically” we’re supposed to be feeding, clothing, washing, and housing the homeless as Jesus commanded. We’re supposed to be taking care of the ill, as Jesus commanded. We’re supposed to “love thy neighbour” and treat everyone, regardless of their gender, race, sexual orientation, equally as Jesus commanded.
But of course we’re not doing any of that and according to the Bible and Jesus that’s an instant ticket to “Hell”.
If Heaven exists it must be a fairly empty place.
Biblically, he can suck my cock and nosebang my asshole
I’m a Christian, and I have no clue what he is talking about.
What was it again with rich people getting into heaven and the camel/rope and the needle?
A scripture so inconvenient that they had to spend a good chunk of the last 2,000 years contorting an explanation for why the obvious reading must be wrong.
Biblically, we are supposed to be relaxing and taking care of our home.
Work is a divine punishment. I am no Buddhist but this dude didn’t read the Quran properly.
Puritanical work ethic bullshit coming from the mouth of someone with hands that have never known callouses.
Fuck his shitty religion; he can shove that fairy tale book up his ass. I don’t give a fuck what “biblically” we are supposed to do.
Don’t you just love this fucking bullshit dripping from the mouth of a parasite who’s never seen hard times?
I do actually agree with the core of this idea. Most people are not happy in a state of long term indolence. Most of us need ‘work’ to be happy. However, that ‘work’ might be carving sculpture, teaching children, breeding plants, or theoretical physics.
How many Albert Einsteins and George Washington Carvers died of blacklung from the mines this parasite inherited?
It doesn’t sound like he has worked a day in wretched life.
Jim Justice Has worked really hard at screwing over everyone who is not a billionaire.
if only these people didn’t pick and choose excerpts from an adult fiction novel in order to justify ruining other peoples’ lives.
Imagine being responsible for hurting so many people and turning around and think you’re a good Christian quoting Bible crap. I wish Jesus was real and coming soon, so he could slap you in the face. This is not what he meant (or the writers of what he said about loving each other, anyway).
If Jesus was real and did come back we’d probably never know because he would get deported and die in a Salvadorian torture prison.
Or put back on a cross. To paraphrase the comic about aliens asked about knowing Jesus, “Yes, he always comes back around to visit every year or so. We gave him donuts. What did you guys do?”
Imagine the irony if Bethlehem is his set spawning point and every time he tries to return he ends up getting murdered by Israel before he can form a coherent sentence.
No, JESUS. You know, white Jesus.
Jesus? Sounds Mexican, he wouldn’t last a day.
Soon we’ll all be Trumptians anyway once he invades the Vatican and elects himself Pope.
most of these “Christians” only go to EVANGELICAL churces/ televangelists. they dont go to just normal ones, it almost always are these politically connected churches.
Fuck you. Murder me outright.
Any politician who publicly states that their religion should be the basis of any law should immediately be [redacted] multiple times in the face with a 12 gauge [redacted]
Yes, these politicians should be redacted.
think biblical, on a cross, crucified.
