If you are unable to participate in the "American dream" whether that means having enough to eat, a roof over your head or basic health care, you are screwed. Sorry you were born poor, lost your job, fell on hard times, etc.

McConnell doesn't feel his Bible calls on him to be compassionate and caring. He thinks it says if you are rich God loves you but if you are poor or in any other way disadvantaged, he hates you.
