It never ceases to amaze me how many poor people are Republicans!
It doesn't amaze me. They've been sold the lie that by working hard they can get rich, and once they are rich why shouldn't they be able to keep as much of their money as possible, after all, they worked hard for it.
Of course the majority of them will work hard and never get rich. Meanwhile people like me who recognizes that I was able to take advantage of a lot of social programs in order to get a well paid job are more than happy to pay more of their salary so that more people can use social programs.
