They do have principles, but their principles are not the ones we hold. Theirs are, for one thing, entirely materialistic -- ie, if people (them) are making money, then God's in his Heaven and all's right with the world. But, they have no clue that there are huge masses of people who cannot pay their bills and who cannot hold on to their homes, and they have no sense of any spiritual values whatsoever. When Sam Rohrer says that it is a moral issue to remove the property tax that puts mostly the elderly, but other families as well, out of their homes, he is not speaking as a socialist, talking about "social justice," he is literally talking about morality and spiritual values that come from God.
