Some Working Poor and Middle Class Americans Vote for the Rich to get Richer and the Poor get Poorer
Self Hatred is a Monster United States and the taxpayers who pay their salaries, to further our democracy of, for and by the people in this young country. If Republican policies favoring the wealthy continue to emerge, further shrinking today’s middle class, then reduced overall consumption, more failed businesses, massive layoffs and thus an economic catastrophe will ensue, making our recent Great Recession seem like a walk in the park.
Yet so many folks still vote for Republican politicians, ensuring such a state of affairs remains in perpetuity.

Low self esteem being deprived living in poverty appears to be OK for some Americans who vote to stay in poverty when they cast their vote for Mitt Romney. Psychopath Republicans no longer fake their disdain for the poor and middle class taxpayers. Over the past decade they have launched a war against these people unprecedented in American history. Secondly, Republicans absolutely hate the President of the United States and use the vilest racial rhetoric in an attempt to remove this man from Office, all at the demise of economic stability for tens of millions of American families.

Preserving and enhancing the wealth of an already rich class at the expense of everyone else is the clarion call of today’s GOP establishment. Since about 1979, according to the Congressional Budget Office, inflation-adjusted average household income for the top 1 percent of all U.S. households soared from about $350,000 to $1,300,000 in 2007 despite a temporary downward Preserving and enhancing the wealth of an already rich class at the expense of everyone else is the clarion call of today’s GOP establishment.
