“Proverbs, the chapter ‘never bend to envy.’ I’ve had that thing all my life, where people are bending to envy.”
(NB: This line does not appear anywhere in Proverbs.)
“Just like Jesus said, ‘The poor will always be with us.’ There is a group of people that just don’t want health care and aren’t going to take care of themselves.”
“The preferential option for the poor, which is one of the primary tenets of Catholic social teaching, means . . . don’t make people dependent on government so that they stay stuck at their station in life.”
