Democrats always attack Republicans for being in favor of big business and trampling the little guy. What people don't realize is that, in order for the Democrats to defend the little guy, they have to take steps to ensure his existence. That way, they can pretend to defend him. Republicans, on the other hand, believe in giving everybody a chance at success and leaving it up to the individual to employ hard work and determination in order to succeed. Democrats would rather have people completely dependent on the government for everything. That way, people have no more control over their own individual lives, and the government can make everybody's decisions for them or just outright tell them what to do and how to live. This is known to most people as Socialism and prominent members of the Democrat party are admitted Socialists (like Hillary Clinton).

You are correct. There are a lot of ignorant, misguided, people who believe the Democrat party is working for them. I would suggest you doubters, go do some homework, and you will discover there is a Socialist party, alive and well in America. You can start with the Liberal progressive caucus. Then Read the Humanist manifestos 1 , 2, 3. Take note of the signers, and what they believe. What they desire, and where they are right now.
Is it possible for these people to be good Americans, when their very philosophy desires a one world government? No Nationalism. That means no countries. Including yours.
Don't forget the Socialist founded A.C.L.U. The founder was a socialist, named Rodger Nash Baldwin.
To you that have no clue what we are talking about, here is a micro course. Listen to Jonn Lennon's stupid song, Imagine.

This is a valid arguement. With out the poor the dems will have no one to vote for them. So they creat programs that keep you poor and dependent on the government. Proof--- Wel fare, If you are on welfare and you get a job you loose your welfare completely, maybe keeping your medical care if your lucky. Most people that are on welfare can't get a good job and end up working at Mc D's which don't pay as well as welfare. Or atleast it's easier to sit at home and make more babies to get more money from the welfare system.
I've never been on it but I know people that are or have been on it and if they try to better themselves they loose what the government gives them.
That is the truth, It is fact, Ask anyone who has been or is on it and they will tell you. Also minorities will get welfare faster than any white person.

Well, the Patriot Act (the monitoring of the public any way/any time) was directed, conceived and passed by Republicans.
The Republican platform says women's right to control their bodies is superseded by the "rights" of fetuses.
The top .1% has gained most of the tax cuts, while real wages of people making under $50,000 has gone down.
It looks like the Republicans are much better at keeping the little people little than what the Democrats could ever do.

Yes. If people are dependent on government to better their lives or correct their shortcomings, they will vote Democrat. So the Dems have a vested interest in keeping people down and making them believe that only the government can better their lives. It's actually quite sad since the people who fall for it are not being well served.

Labels, labels, labels. I don't know how old you are, but I'm 51 and have seen a lot in my time with the government and the world. We have a choice to choose which party that we believe in. If one is for something, it is common sense that the other is against it. The lesser of two evils.........
