The Democratic Party no longer offers any promise of community, so people are looking out for themselves.
Why should people invest in bogus lip service of how things will be when most of their representatives are owned by corporations and sell-out to the highest bidder? People are seeing their voice slowly tampered by ever-shifting democrats, who lean more to the right each and every day. Those who start to make money get to the point where it's like "Why effing bother?" and move to their own needs.
I'm up there in income and I am struggling to fight for people who don't seem interested in saving themselves. They bitch and bitch every day how things suck, but apparently it doesn't suck enough to continue with the same practices. I'm at the point where I will vote Democrat, no matter what, but my family will do well under either party. If people want to continue with things the way they are, civil and women's rights will disolve anyway in the next decade or so, as that's the trend.
