Compassion vs Forced Empathy

"

Not all of those ditches get dug, and not all of that money reaches the ditch diggers.

So, when the left then attempts to lecture the rest of the world on how to treat people, specifically Americans, it is downright laughable.  “All men are created equal” does not guarantee you the equality of outcome, only a starting point of equality.  Then it’s up to you to pursue your happiness…another inalienable right. The Declaration of Independence does not say “all men are created equal, but give some people a few extra points”.  That’s why reverse racism is still racism.

This is part of the common confusion that surrounds the line between true compassion and forced empathy.  Those who are compassionate want our downtrodden fellow countrymen to find what they need to succeed.  Those who are forced into empathy tend to want to throw money at a problem to make it go away.
This is the liberal left in a nutshell.  It’s not about doing the actual ditch digging, but, rather, identifying those who do not yet have a ditch, promising them a ditch in return for votes, and then just giving them the money to dig their own ditch.
Not all of those ditches get dug, and not all of that money reaches the ditch diggers.
