poor & republican

[Thong Maniac]

You're extremely ignorant to assume that anyone who votes Republican is a poor religious person on welfare, and that the only religious people are Republicans. How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

Hey dumb ass...i was talking about the marketing/religious shit that went on to garnish support from rural bible belt people in the 70s and 80s as was discussed in the book.

[Thong Maniac]

You do realize the Dem party endorsed slavery?

Yeah, dixie crats. There has been a huge reversal in party systems so your point is not relevant to modern day politics

[Primemuscle]

Well, in general Republicans do work but are taxed/fined/fee'd to death by the IRS and other libtard organizations controlled by  Democraps.   

Some of the poorest people I know are Republicans. Some of these people aren't taxed to death (or at all) because they are on the dole and yet they complain about taxation. I also know some well-off Republicans, they complain bitterly about taxation.

I am sure I also know some poor folks who are Democrats. Like the Republicans, they complain about taxes. I'm a Democrat. I do okay financially. I hate paying taxes.

The IRS was instituted in 1862 to pay for the Civil War. President Lincoln was the President at that time. He was a Republican.

[Primemuscle]

Not well. Republicans expect people to be honest, hard working, and responsible for their own actions and well being. The poor want something for nothing. So the democrats use taxpayers money, to buy votes from the poor.

Can you provide and example of this for me?

[Primemuscle]

Democrats (Slave Owners) rose from the south so you are probably wrong on that front and like most poor people, they usually don't vote.

I am not getting what you are saying here. Democrat (slave owners) weren't poor. Hence, they probably voted, according to your logic. Slaves couldn't vote. They probably were neither Democrat or Republican.

I am not sure what the demographics are on who does and who does not vote in the South. I do know some Republicans who don't vote and others who do. Interestingly, the ones I know who don't vote are poor.

[Primemuscle]

Don't trust a Republican!

Better yet, don't trust a politician.

[Primemuscle]

Because they'd like to get off welfare, get out of the trailer park, and get back to work?

How does this work?

So Wiggzy is owned by some Mr.Democrat

Slavery is no longer legal.

What would be Wiggzys market "value" 

[Twaddle]

One word: "Farmers"

[Walter Sobchak]

Can you provide and example of this for me?

Detroit

Chicago

[Primemuscle]

Detroit

Chicago

These are cities, not examples.

[Walter Sobchak]

These are cities, not examples.

What way do those cities vote?

Who runs those cities - Dems or Repubs?

What common factor do those cities have (hint - look at percentage of black population)

Are those cities well managed?

Have those cities had corrupt politicians of a certain racial persuasion?

Jesus Christ........liberal idiots.

Slavery is no longer legal.

Welfare is a form of slavery/indentured servitude for a vote. It cares not the color of one's skin but instead focuses on blue over red.  Slavery was a primary foundation of the Democratic Party.  That same party founded the so-called "Great Society" in the 60s.  Party on Democrats.

Loathsome.

1.The poorest crime ridden cities always have Democrats in charge.

2. Democrats out raise Republicans from rich donors at a high disproportional rate.

3. Prior to the Republicans sweeping into Congress the Democratic wealth of the individual Congressmen was much greater than the Republican ones.

4. The Koch brothers are dwarfed by the amount of money the Democratic causes get from Soros.

5. The overwhelming majority owners, CEO's and presidents of news providers in print, network tv and cable are liberal Democrats who run their news as a public relations firm for the left.

6. Hillary Clinton election is being funded in a big part from Arab nations who have donated to Hillary's foundation that has no accounting for how the money is spent. Even she has admitted the incredible foreign contributions to the foundation whose accounting of pay out to charities and toward her pay as the boss of is not revealed.

Watch how the majority liberal media like CBS, NBC, ABC, Washington Post, NY Times, CNN, MSNBC, Huffington Post and the rest guide the sheep into who they vote for.

Lol nice one example. Let me dig for the hundreds that show opposite slant. Come on man, you are smarter than to buy into political memes and think thats the end all be all...

[forillagorilla]

The South is FILLED with white trash republicans living in trailer homes, who are on welfare.

I always found that quite ironic. Why would Southerners who are dirt broke poor, living in a trailer home, vote republican?

You have no clue - there is more wealth in the south than you can imagine. In my hometown I didn't know one kid whose dad didn't make 100K and this was late 80's

Lol at knowing how much your friends parents made...

I would have never asked or even knew whAt monetary figures were relevant or meant.

Pretty weird child hood id imagine?

Of course there are people who want to get back to work. You're ignorant because you actually think that I mean EVERY single poor person in the South. When most people say stuff like that, they are talking about a great deal, not EVERY single person, you dimwit.

No shit, there are people trying to not be poor, but thats not why they vote republican. I am sure they vote republican for many other reasons, religious beliefs being a big pull for many people.

Good luck trying to get a southerner to vote for an outright muslim or atheist candidate.  

I'm from the south and not religious. As I've stated here before, I don't care if a candidate is married to a dog, has sex with a goat, and worships a unicorn. I want a smaller government overall, adherence to the Constitution, personal freedom and liberty, lower taxes and regs for my business, and fiscal responsibility.

And a federal government that does little if anything more than protect the country from fraud and foreign enemies, while allowing states to largely govern themselves, and for local law enforcement to do its own job. Let me keep half my money. I'll always vote against the guy who wants to take more of my money.

I had very little when I graduated college a couple of decades ago. But I knew I'd get to where I wanted to be eventually. Those principles and ideals meant as much to me then as they do now, even though the lines have admittedly blurred, and I'm mainly voting for a lesser of 2 evils.

But I never let big govt or big unions take care of me and define me or how high I could go in life. It would have been stupid for someone like me to have voted for a socialist even 21 years ago when I got my first "real" job and had little more than big dreams.

How does this work?

I don't know specifically how one would do these things, but I do know what it's like to go from being considered poor / lower middle class in my early 20's to becoming quite the opposite after many years of hard work and a little good luck here and there.

It helps to have a business-friendly environment, lower taxes and regs, etc. But one can still become successful even in more hostile environments like we've seen the last half dozen years.

You're usually right, and this post is no exception. Of course it's nothing new.

One works the other doesn't.

But, you, yourself, were a burden to society, were you not, Coach? 'There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford I'
