Why the hell does anyone vote Republican? If there were any benefit to voting Republican, the evidence here would be overwhelming. Instead, we've got a bunch of cretins having to go back 150 ******* years to when the GOP was the progressive party of its time to cite freeing the slaves, and they have to go back to the 70's to cite the clean water act -- which Nixon didn't want and Republicans have been FIGHTING ever since. A couple of knuckledraggers even cited Bush's failed "No Child Left Behind"
which has failed.
So, why do you vote Republican? They can't govern, and nothing good comes from Republican policy.
You guys know the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result, right?
The entire question to me, is based on a false premise.
I don't want the Republicans to do anything, but get government out of the way.
The clean water act, is a perfect example. Many states already had clean water plans in place, and the EPA destroyed them, screwed up their water sources, and then started taking credit for clean ups that they themselves caused.
Get out of the way. Let the public fix their own lives. People are amazing, and resilient, and capable of improving their own lives, if you simply get out of their way.
Instead you enslave them into government programs, and make them impotent, and dependent, and hopeless. Waiting on their butt, for some fix from some left-wing idiot, to repair their lives, and it never comes.
The benefit to voting Republican is that hopefully they screw up everything less.
Give you another example. Right now, the company I am working for, is now offering their temp-agency employees, $1 less an hour to be hired on.
Why are they doing that? In the two decades prior, you got a pay raise for being hired on as a full time employee, not a pay cut.
Why are they offering people less money to be hired on? Because of Obama Care. The costs of health care have been driven up on the company, to the point that they are cutting wages. As a temp-agency employee, they don't have to pay for benefits, so you get the full amount of your wage. When you are hired on, they have to pay benefits for you by law. So they cut your pay, to cover the cost of the benefits, namely health care.
See? Everything you people on the left do, screws up our lives. Nothing you have done is a benefit to society as a whole.
The benefit from voting republican is, hopefully they won't pass very many of these lame-brain screwed up policies that mess up our lives. We can fix the economy, if you people just stop screwing everything up.
