3. Why do people continue to vote to support corporate welfare?

The illogic of giving the wealthy more and more money needs to be explained
in very simple/understandable terms to the people who vote GOP.

The logic of giving back the middle class salaries that have been stolen over
the past 30 years needs to be explained in very simple and understandable terms.

Even the Republican't party platform shows that they are just trying to impose
their religious beliefs on the rest of the country.
May they Rest In Peace...quickly

Freedom of personal choice is where the balance is!
Live and let live.
"You live the way I want you to live" - is not Democracy

The logic of slow/evolutionary change to better people's lives is the goal.

The history of the era of the robber baron is what we need to learn from
And the failure of the "Trickle-Down Theory" is what we need to learn from.

The illegality of bribery from lobbyists needs to be stopped
Our Congress is bought.

The misappropriation of corporate funds to buy elections is absurd!
Our Supreme Court is bought.

The Republican't run states that are gerrymandering and blocking the vote
need to be corrected. The fact that they don't even try to hide their hurtfull
manipulations of the system should immediately be outlawed by the judicial
branch - but where are they? Where are the ethics committees?

If our current form of government had been proposed back in 1776
we never would have tried to break away from England.

What a mess!
