Many Public Officials focus on making donors happy and agree: “I will vote to take money from helpless taxpayers if I get contributions from donors and approval from other Officials.”
Many use needlessly expensive solutions to Imaginary Problems to justify taking money from donors. That violates Two of God’s Commandments that tell us: “You shall not bear false witness.” and “You shall not steal.”
Votes that show “I do not love God and my neighbors as myself” keep many Public Officials from being pleasing to God at Judgment.
May all be blessed to guide every vote by its effect on our immortal soul. The desire to use political position to benefit oneself and one’s family is hard to control. May all be blessed to do so.
