Rich in Programs, Poor in Purpose

Faith. Family. Freedom. Purpose.

Mira la izquierda, mira la derecha—what do you see? A nation rich in programs and poor in purpose, told to trade fathers for agencies and dignity for red tape. Newsflash: purpose is not a government program.

We confront the quiet cruelty hiding in plain sight: a disability system that warehouses people, a culture that sidelines fatherhood, and a political class that talks race while ducking responsibility. A seven-year-old amputee left on a curb. Veterans and service dogs treated like inconveniences. A $2,000 Medicaid asset cap frozen since 1987 that traps families in dependency. That is not compassion. That is control.

Chairman David Ridenour of the National Center for Public Policy Research lays out how to fix disability policy with outcomes over enrollment and work that restores dignity instead of punishing independence. Terris E. Todd of Project 21 takes aim at cultural decay, the assault on fatherhood, and the lie that government programs can replace a father’s presence or a homeowner’s pride.

We choose entrepreneurship over bureaucracy. We restore fathers to the head of the table. We turn $200 billion in disability-community buying power into opportunity, not pity. And yes, we pray—because unity without truth is just noise.

“We warehouse people in our disability system and we need to change that.”      — David Ridenour, National Center for Public Policy Research, October 7, 2025

Be a leader. Be a voice for liberty. And for heaven’s sake—stop letting the same people who broke the system tell you they can fix it.
