No problem.
Are there Republicans who are not net payers of Federal Income Taxes.........who are receiving disaster relief?
The answer is yes. And liberals are FUCKING HAPPY TO KNOW IT.
That is the difference. Simply put.......LIBERALS CARE MORE ABOUT MAKING SURE PEOPLE ARE FED, CLOTHED, HOUSED, EDUCATED, EMPLOYED AND HEALTHY than they do about a few percentage points of profit being sent to Washington.
Day after day......we hear how EVERYONE is corrupt...and THEY ALL bow down to corporate interests. Sure.......they all do.
But the liberal ones do so with an eye toward helping the least among us.....even if it inconveniences those who have prospered. This is the fact of it.
Just listen to the hard-asses in the GOP talk about disaster relief. It is unreal.
Lets assume that THEY ALL suck corporate lobbyist dick.
Ask yourself.......where does your party stand on these issues:
Do they want more people or fewer people to vote?
Do they want all people to have equal rights in all matters?
Do they have empathy for the poor....or do they despise them?
Do they think we have an impact on the environment or not?
Do they want all Americans to be healthy or just those who can afford it?
Do they think ALL childeren can learn...or are we wasting time on some?
There are more......but you get the idea.
If you think they care more about people then you're a partisan. None of them care about anybody other than themselves. They simply put on airs to keep themselves in power.
It is a fact that most of those in high levels of government, whether elected, appointed, or hired, are far more likely to be invested in their own power, prestige, influence, and acquisition of personal wealth than they are going to be concerned about anything else. I am afraid that is true of both political parties and the few independents. That does not mean that some are not more savvy in how to stimulate an economy, etc. or what is more prudent policy than others are savvy, but that is a different subject.
But I do want more people to vote, but I want those who have educated themselves on the people and issues to vote, and not those who are paid to vote or told a name to vote for or who vote illegally.
I want equal rights for all, but I do not want rights to require one person to provide for another except within the nuclear family. A right should otherwise require no participation or contribution from another.
I believe a moral society cares for the truly helpless and gives a hand up to those who need it. I believe a moral society does not promote or encourage poverty but, to quote Ben Franklin, does its best to lead or drive people out of it.
I believe a moral people does not do environmental violence and that conservatives and liberals equally want clean water, air, and soil and aesthetic beauty. I also believe that the greatest thing we can do to encourage people to care for the environment is to encourage affluence. The more affluent people are the more they have the leisure and resources to care and do something about it.
I believe it is up to every individual to take responsibility for his/her own health and it is not our responsibility to dictate to others what they are required to do for their health.
I believe a moral people cares about the educationally challenged and helps as it can. But I believe it is as wrong to take resources and time away from those who can and will learn and assign it to those who can't or won't as it is to neglect those who aren't necessarily the 'brightest and best'. It is noboy's responsibility to see that my children are educated but mine. If I can form a social contract with others to cooperate together in the process, that should also be our collective choice. But I don't want the federal government having any say in what my child will or will not be taught.
There is a lot more, but I'm sure some will get the idea. . . .
The bullshit began at the hi lighted section. Did it ever stop? Ask someone who read the rest.
