Socialist, racist SOB.I am not in favor of equal incomes. I want the government to reduce economic inequality the way it did during the Franklin Roosevelt administration with a high minimum wage, strong labor unions, and a well financed public sector of the economy paid for by steeply progressive taxation.
Also, I am opposed to affirmative action and racial reparations. These force lower middle class and working class whites to make sacrifices on behalf of blacks. Democrat support for affirmative action and apparent sympathy with racial reparations are main reasons most lower middle class and working class whites vote Republican.
The New Deal was popular among working class whites and Southern whites. The loss of these constituencies has been catastrophic for the Democrat Party.
