The biblical command, in the face of such power, is quite clear. Scripture tells us "that unto whom much is given, much is required."
We think of ourselves as a nation of faithful people responsive to God's will and God's way. If this is true, then we would be clear that our power and abundance came to us not by our own work and will but was given to us by our Creator to be carefully tended and fully shared.
