You can have one, but not both:
| A democracy We the majority… | A republic We the people… |
| Social security | Natural marriage of one man and one woman |
| Schools funded, operated, maintained, and mandated by government | Virtuous, self-governing citizens of a free republic |
| Government student loans | affordable higher education |
| government poverty programs | charity |
| Obamacare, Medicaid, Medicare, single-source funding | innovative, caring, affordable healthcare |
24 Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by [b]Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”
5 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.
Matthew 12:22-28 New King James Version (NKJV)
