Voting against one's own economic interests...Politics gone awry.

[Cellblock2429]

Ask yourself what issues they are voting for. What do the voters think are their interests? Or you could get out of the way and let the Republicans actually cut those subsidies. But instead you hope to win elections by along the voters stupid.

Wages are the number one problem for the middle class. Republicans and corporate America aren't interested in fixing that problem.

/----/ there are top paying jobs for qualified people. If you're to lazy to get the training that's not the GOPs or Corporate America's fault. It's your fault.

Hillary promised to raise my taxes and give my money to her mooching loser deadbeats

She did????........WOW, what a meanie....Were the "mooching loser deadbeats" in states like Mississippi and Alabama.....or do you mean those "darkies".....LOL

No they were in NY and CA did you sleep through the election?

Beyond the incessant "we won with Trump" mantra often voiced by right wingers, there should be the sanity of reality which occurs a bit later, sobering up the silly chanting.


Truth be told, red states that voted overwhelmingly for Trump just haven’t been pulling their weight.

Red states are nearly twice as dependent on the federal government as blue states. Of the twelve states that received the least federal aid in return for each tax dollar they contribute to the U.S. Treasury,TEN of them voted for Hillary Clinton—and the other two were Michigan and Wisconsin, barely won by Trump in a temporary loss of sanity.

By the same count, 20 of the 26 states most dependent on federal aid went to Trump.
For example, Mississippi [in]famous for being 49th or 50th in just about everything that matters. When it comes to sucking at the federal teat, the Magnolia State is the undisputed champ. More than 40 percent of Mississippi’s state revenue comes from federal funding; one-third of its GDP comes from federal spending; for every dollar it pays out in federal taxes, Good ol' Mississippi takes in $4.70 in federal aid, and one in five residents of that state is on food stamps.

So, what do these red states do when it comes to electing a president?.....They succumb to demagoguery and lies....and vote in the very worst person whose economic (and health) plans are aimed at royally screwing them......Wolf-like Populism in orange sheep clothing.

Bottom line: The generosity of blue states' contribution to the federal coffers, is slapped down by the stupidity of those who were the beneficiary of that generosity.

But yet you were eager to vote for 'O twice as he fleeced you and the rest of America out of trillions as he lied to you and you loved it.

 

[Cellblock2429]

Since when is voting for your socialist slave state in our own best economic interest? By what twisted perverse logic do you make that claim? Our best interest is higher taxes and less freedom?

Just read (or have someone help you read and comprehend the O/P).....
I promise it won't tax (pardon the expression) your half brain too much.

/----/ I stopped reading after your asinine "vote against your own self interest" rant. That talking point has been in use by you libs for years. It indicates a highly partisan view and I have no interest in reading further.

Cutting those "subsidies"by republicans would make blue states RICHER and red states more like 3rd world mini-countries....

Actually, not a bad plan.....I like it.

Conservative counties control the food/energy/water in this country… you're such a gullible motherfucker

 

[nat4900]

Mississippi was blue for a long long time.

Yeah, sure....I believe that good ol' Miss. voted democrat in 1960 or thereabout; approximately 55 years ago.........Are you implying that folks in that state are a bit slow??? LOL

(This thread is NOT just about Mississippi......ask a grown up to help you.)

 

[nat4900]

People on food stamps will leave in droves.

Perhaps........
We'd then need to build that Trump Wall along the Mason-Dixon line instead.....LOL

You do know that Mississippi borders the Mississippi river, and the Army Corp of Engineer's basically runs that river?

And all those Red states that "take" federal $$ have tons of federal land. How about we ask those States to trade the federal money for their land back?

And of course "aid" isn't defined, so money spend on Millitary bases probably is included, and a lot of those bases are in Red States.

Fuck face...
Food, energy and water are controlled by conservative areas of the country how about we divide up like that... do you have fucking shit for brains?

Ahhhhhh....you've been able to trace your wasted "tax dollars" to some black guy in Harlem and some Mexican in San Diego?????l......You're a "genius"............LOL

You want to know why those people rejected your party? Because for the past several years you cared more about social justice warriors, illegal aliens, environmental extremists, what bathroom someone was allowed to use, and constantly insulted the intelligence of rural Americans, as opposed to addressing the issues the average American actually cares about.

It's really not hard to figure out.

Voting against one's own economic interests, has defined conservatism for decades. Conservatives remain convinced "Trickle down" is helping them.

They are idiots.

Same old lies from the same old fascists.

The 2003 "study" your bullshit was based on included Military bases and federal parks as federal aid to red states. Mississippi has the 2nd largest black population of any state, so you might want to tone down your demagoguery, Herr Hitler...

Agreed....the DNC alienated 1/3 of the electorate who still want a white male in charge, darkies in back of the bus, and a return to confederate mentality....basically the "deplorables."
