You are correct
Republicans attack the poor and working poor from both ends.
Not handing out free money to people that doesn't belong to them does not equal attacking the poor. Stealing money from people who have more and redistributing it to others, however, does equal attacking the working class.
They support policies that hold down wages and benefits and then try to slash government assistance
The only wage and benefits you deserve is what you and your employer agree to when you take the job. If you don't like the agreement seek employment elsewhere. Nobody is forced at gun point to work at Walmart.
It comes down to helping those who need help....A concept that enrages conservatives
I know of plenty of conservatives who help those who need help. Confiscating other people's property against their will by use of force is not charity. It's theft and it's immoral.
Taxing the wealthy to benefit the society that they have prospered from is what modern societies do
Says who?
