The difference between Democrats & Republicans is Democrats let poor people be corrrupt too! Do you agree?

Question

This statement was made 60 years ago, by pianist and wit Oscar Levant. Is it true today also?

Answer 1

Equal corrupton opportunity. I think that is a fairly accurate statement.

Answer 2

The difference between the Democrats and Republicans is that one is a giant corrupt party filled with old stupid people who can't do anything else besides run for public office. And the other party is a group of rich losers that try to act lower class but couldn't win an election is they were handed Florida, Ohio, Texas, California, New York and opposition party leader was a Nazi.

If you can correctly match the party to the description, it only proves my point.

Answer 3

In what way do democrats 'let' people be corrupt? We need reforms in america, reforms that are gonna SUCK. But, they're necessary anyway, because we've got a runaway debt, we've gota a runaway tax system that feeds that debt, and the only people that aren't running away are mexicans. Of course, for them it's a lesser of two evils, but the point is that NEITHER the United States NOR Mexico need have these problems IF the People would stand up and choose a different path than we've been following for about the last,hmm, 40 years or more.

Answer 4

Well, if you consider how the State of Lousiana handled Katrina, and how a lot of the money was spent then yes.
However, I think it is an unfair and illogical statement as it implies an almost universal accusation to both parties. Not all politically associated people are corrupt, and not all poor people are democrats.

Answer 5

The difference between Democrats and Republicans are that most democrats live their life by myths instead of facts and are morally corrupt! They are just sad that Republicans are leading the US.

Answer 6

I disagree with this statement. The difference is that democrats are more liberal and republicans more conservative. When former President Clinton was in office how many poor people did you know that was corrupt?

Answer 7

Anyone who quotes a statement made by Oscar Levant is stupid.

Answer 8

Both parties are a piece of crap. They all lie, steal, cheat, make empty promises and dont give a damn about us. I guess if the demos let poor people be corrupt then it must be the repubs that let rich people be corrupt. That is the difference here.

Answer 9

The difference between a democrat and a repubican is:
Some democrats are corrupt while ALL republicans are corrupt.

Answer 10

I have traditional always seen Republicans as the do it yourself kinda people, self reliant. the kind of people that if they need to build a house will grab a hammer and get to work.


Dems as people that need someone else to do things for them, if they needed to build a house they would call a contractor.
