Are you a Libertarian?

Actually the Democrats nor the Republicans are following what their party really stands for. They just sit up in Washington pretending to follow the party but in reality they are just robbing the taxpayers.

Call me a hopeless romantic, but I don't believe this. Yes there are crooked politicians out there who only get into it for the money and don't give a shit about anyone else but themselves, but I believe that some truly do want to help our communities and country. I believe Barack Obama is sincere. I don't agree with everything he says, but he seems sincere to me, and I him The last guy, not so much.

I'm telling you that no one I know in my area that I talk to likes social programs regardless of their party. I live in a Democratic majority county

The problem is your small corner does not reflect the majority of the US. I live in a red county and almost no one here feel like they do in your area. If it weren't for social programs like pubic schools my son would not get an education or be able to learn how to socialize with other people. He is in a state funded program now that is teaching him how to use public transportation, budget money, how to behave appropriately in public and he gets to get out and spend time with others who are like him. It's great. If it weren't for social programs my son would be an outcast from society and so would many others. Social programs are not evil. Yes there are people who abuse the system, it happens everywhere, but there are a great many who benefit from these programs.
