Honeycrisp apples are hard to grow

This apple has problems. It was too big, too fragile, and a magnet for disease. The farmers who sampled it were quick to dismiss the finicky tree.

Fuji and Gala apples are great alternatives.

America’s Favorite Apple Is a Farmer’s Nightmare

Honeycrisp’s iconic crunch transformed the industry, but for the people who grow the finicky fruit, she’s ‘an absolute diva.’

Missed that part where Jesus beat those seeking refuge. What I remember is:

Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.
Romans 12:13

Cursed is anyone who withholds justice from the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.
