Barack Obama talks about poverty as a moral issue. As a leader he doesn't want to stand by, as Christian calling, he wants to act in works of justice and charity. As far as budget wants to not take from poor and middle class because he thinks it is morally wrong. Rather he promotes sharing the wealth. He also believes education is a huge gateway to community improvement. He also says, which I LOVE, we are one people one American family, one nation. We must each do our part and work as a dear neighbor, to better the generation to come.
Mitt Romney wants to take a different approach. He wants to improve the economy and get out of this economic recession. He believes in coming to aid of those in need and lift each other up, but he wants to do this by reducing the national debt. He thinks creating jobs will help those in poverty. He also wants to support other catholic programs for helping with this national issue.
I think both of these are good approaches to the issue. Romney takes more of government efforts will trickle down and long term help to poor. He thinks by making the whole nation a better place those in need to reap the benefits. Whereas, Obama's approach is more for the community and community improvement. He sees this as more of a moral issue, and will help with government action, but believes this is a "caring for the dear neighbor" issue.
