Democrat / Republican. What is the simplest way to explain the difference in philosophy?

Question

I SAID SIMPLEST.

Answer 1

Republican = personal responsibility and meritocracy

Democrat = nanny-state, mediocrity, wealth redistribution (everyone is equally poor) and victim class

Answer 2

Today, that is one hard (and good) question. There are the “evil rich republicans” but I cannot name a single democratic senator that is not a millionaire. The democrats, savior of the poor and blacks had their majority vote against every civil rights bill and yet THEY represent those groups? Democrats scream about campaign finance reform while being financed by lawyers, unions, and Chinese and India interests that received our missile technology through them. And the junior senator from N.Y. that “bought votes” using a presidential pardon for the worst of criminals, hid subpoenaed documents under her bed while taking money from Tyson of Arkansas for unpaid commodity futures, led the charge to impeach Nixon…then lost the (will) law when it came to Bill. Today republicans appear to out spend the democrats and surrender America and still the democratic says even that is not enough!
J.F.K. Reagan, and now G.W. cut the tax burden on the working class and all three ended a recession. The end tax cuts and raise taxes some more democrats propose will head America on that down ward slope once again, control is their goal.
Hey! Unemployment now under 5%, the press is “the tragedy of it all!”
Under Jimmeny Carter it was 14%, and the press was “cheer-up! He has us headed in the right direction!”....That is if your goal is to make America yet another third world s#it hole where pukes in the press actually have power!

Answer 3

essentially they both have similar ideologies, the republicans being at the "hawkish" end of the spectrum. The democrats being "doves", essentially the both want whats worst for everybody but the republicans have the balls to tell you this while the democrats being the chicken **** scum that they are will pretend to be your buddy while knifing you in the spine. They both represent elite power interests at the heart of the matter and couldnt give a good god damn about you or anything else but the attainment of absolute power and making they're bank accounts buldge.....

Answer 4

Democrats feel that, by supporting everything in the world that is evil, they can destroy the country to the point they can take full power for themselves and never have to give it back. They missed 1984 by a few years, but they are very patient.

Republicans believe that, by living the way Jesus asked us to, we can produce a much better world for everyone.
