budget critics: what would jesus cut?

Commentary from Christian Scientist Monitor Economic Scene's Weekly column.

"Groups critical of the proposed cuts forecast widespread social damage. They say some 300,000 people will lose food-stamp benefits, a cut in child-care assistance will affect 300,000 children, large reductions in housing assistance will leave more people with disabilities and AIDS out in the cold, and 600,000 will be hit by cuts in a supplemental nutrition program. The list goes on." ~~~David R. Francis
