That's not what he said, but run with that all you can...No they do not. They re-elected a man POTUS who claimed small business owners never built their business.Not so. The American public wants fair, equal, and just representation, a responsible government, and opportunities to be self-supporting productive members of society.But their perception is "The government owes me a social safety net."bingo.First, no one forces the voters to vote for the anti-America self-serving egotistical greedy power hungry professional politicians that occupy seats in government. Secondly, it's not the media, our education system, nor is it the Democratic party that's to blame for the obvious destruction of this once great nation. As a matter of fact, 110% of the blame falls squarely on the shoulders of the voters themselves, no one else. In this country, no one is forced to vote, no one is forced to vote for a particular person or a particular party, and no one is obligated to swallow the obviously biased BS spewed by the various media. And, our education systems do NOT punish anyone for using their own intelligence, nor keep anyone from reading and doing their own research to find the answers to any questions they may have about the political arena in America.
It is really amazing to read so much each day where folks are blaming a person, a political party, a group, and/or an organization for our many social and economic woes. In my many years of following politics, writing about it, and reading about it, I can't recall one instance where a voter, or voters, accept responsibility for the sad shameful state that this once great nation has fallen to. Voters continually blame our problems on Liberals, Conservatives, Moderates, Republicans, Democrats, Right Wings, Left Wings, and anything else that one can think of. It's almost like they honestly believe that politicians just waltz into Washington and take a seat, all on their own. Voters never once consider the fact that politicians reach Washington via votes. And who votes? Yes, it's the voters that vote. So, who is to blame when things go wrong, when we amass astronomical debt, engage in senseless deadly costly wars, encourage dependency on government assistance programs, and allow our living wage self-supporting jobs to flow to cheap foreign labor markets?
The really sad part is the fact that so many professional politicians serve more than one term, get re-elected, and continue to do absolutely nothing for this nation as a whole. The American voters need to do a little self-examination before throwing blame at the low-life crooks that serve in Washington. After all, they wouldn't be there if they hadn't been elected.
