democrats vs. republicans?!?

Question

ok, as much as people have explained it to me, i just dont get it! what is the differance between democrats and republicans?!

Answer 1

Republicans want to make life better for the rich people at ANY cost to the rest of society. Democrats want to make life better for everyone, especially the disenfranchised.

Answer 2

There is no difference. They are both bought and paid for by the same people. Both want a North American Union. Both want open borders. Both want more government and less freedom. Both want to destroy the middle class. Both are working to destroy the Constitution.

Look at it this way. For the last 150 years we've had Democrats and Republicans. Has the country gotten better or worse since it's founding? The Democrats and Republicans both want the same things. Its like this: You have a fork and a knife. You put the fork in the light socket and get shocked and then blame it on the fork. So you take the knife and put it in the light socket and get shocked. You reason the knife sold you out so you go back to the fork and insert it into the light socket. Again, you are shocked. The fork must have betrayed you somehow. And you keep going like this until you are dead.

This is how the Democrats and Republicans work. They work for the same people. The Dems are in power but you eventually realize they are corrupt so you vote for a Republican. Republicans have power for a while and lo and behold it turns out they aren't living up to their promises. So you turn around and vote Democrat again. Guess what? Nothing gets fixed but things get worse. So you vote Republican again and the process just repeats until your country has been destroyed by the globalist who own the Republican and Democratic parties.

The moral of the story? Stop worrying about the difference between the Democrats and Republicans. They are killing this country. Start looking in to other parties such as the Libertarians or the Constitution party. If you have a socialist liberal bent look at the Green party. There are others out there and you would be much better off learning the differences between these parties and forget the Republicans and Democrats all together.

Answer 3

The difference is more in the people and the belief systems. Most republicans tend to be more conservative, but more loose with spending. Democrats tend to be more liberal, but more tight with money. But there are always exceptions to that. I know many democrats that are very conservative (anti-abortion, anti-gay marriage, etc), and republicans that are very liberal (pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage). In the end, I vote for the one I think will do the best job for our country and our people. I will say this-- being a responsible voter means reading about all the issues on the ballot and making informed choices. People have gone to war and died so that we have the freedom and right to vote. It is shameful and disrespectful to their memory to be nonchalant about it. Better to not vote than to demean the process.

Answer 4

Really, there are no differences between Democrats and Republicans. They are both rather liberal - democrats being ridiculously liberal and most republicans moderately liberal.

What you're talking about is the difference between liberals and conservatives. Basically, this is what it is:

Conservatives see people making their own decisions about themselves and their property, supporting themselves, and taking responsibility for their lives as the solution to problems.

Liberals see government plans, policy, and force (through taxes, government handouts, government programs, government regulations, etc.) as the way to create the perfect society.

Those are the underlying principles of both groups, though it gets more complicated.

Answer 5

democrats believe in a strong (not necessarily large) federal government. They believe that our national security is directly linked to our social security so that strong social programs are a part of their agenda. To pay for these programs they may tax the rich at a higher rate than the poor. they believe in government regulation of industry where it effects taxpayers and workers and minorities.
Republicans believe in a small federal government (regardless of its strength) that our national security is directly linked to the strength of our military, and that the burdens of keeping our country socially secure should be shouldered by charities and church organizations. They also believe that the less we tax the rich the more money will "trickle down' to all of the people who aren't rich as they buy things that are made by poor people who work for other rich people.

Answer 6

There is no difference. Both sides make claims as to who they are and what they stand for and what will change when we elect them into office but we never see any of that in action. They claim to be polar opposites when they are most similar because their biggest attributes are that their entire entities revolve around a bunch of empty promises.

Answer 7

Republicans know the price of everything and the value of nothing. Democrats are sometimes nice people when they haven't got their nose in the trough.

Answer 8

Democrats want the federal government to control our lives and they want us to pay for it. Republicans want to give states more rights and cut down on the amount we should pay.

Answer 10

There is no difference.. Why men want to rule over other men is beyond me.
