The so-called “conservative” approach to governance is to shower the ultra-wealthy with free money, and then pay for doing so by cutting programs that the working class needs.
That’s neither governance nor conservative. That’s called a shakedown. It’s a swindle. If you vote Republican, you’re supporting this arrangement. This has nothing to do with capitalism. This has nothing to do with the free market. This has nothing to do with benefits “trickling down.” It’s about taking a person who works for a living and has bills to pay, and taking away from them to benefit those who have three houses and a private jet. Again, if you vote Republican, this is the arrangement you’re supporting.
I get it. You don’t like brown people, and you would like to help make America white again. But the country is turning brown. America will soon be comprised of a majority of minorities. Your vote is an attempt to shovel sand against the tide. And here’s the real kicker: the people you’re voting for do not care about making America white again. That’s just rhetoric used to get votes. (It works, so they keep doing it); but the real priority is what I described above.
The White House—this White House—does not care about brown people or Christian values or the trans-gendered. They care about handing free money to those who do not need it. They care about socialism for the ultra-wealthy. You can give free money to them; but if you do something for the working class you’re a Marxist? You’re a communist? There’s no money? The budget’s tight.
My guess is you work for a living and have bills to pay. Your family probably does not have $40 million for a Gulfstream G500. So, would it not be in your best interest to support politicians who are going to support you? The Gulfstream set will be just fine. They don’t need your help.
And do they appreciate your help? Are you somehow on their team because you vote Republican? They wouldn’t wipe the bottoms of their shoes off on you—yuck. You’re disgusting to them. They look at you the same way you look at minorities. Worse. You just simply don’t like brown people. But the Gulfstream set reviles you. They find you loathsome.
And there you are, voting to give them free money. You worship them because they have looked out for themselves. Maybe voters should do the same.
PS. I have mentioned the Republican Party in this essay a few times. This is not to suggest I am devoted to the Democrats. I am not. They’re awful. The GOP is just worse.
