(5,610 posts)It seems that we mostly are very red and very ignorant in this area. I have traveled to many places. As a disabled person, the greed and lack of caring Dr.'s was the first thing I noticed.
I display an Obama/Biden bumper sticker on my car. I am forced to defend this almost daily and I am surprised that someone hasn't removed it, yet.
While I have only seen 1 or 2 Rmoney stickers, unfortunately Rmoney did win the primary here. My bumper sticker explanations have made the people I have spoken to, at least think (a little) and I have heard a lot of "I didn't know that" from these people. Sadly, I am still ridiculed when people first see my bumper sticker. I want to move to a blue state where I can at least have an intelligent conversation about my choice. Most of these comments come from people who have never voted....greedy neanderthals IMO.
I do have some wealthy friends (R), who are so worried about "the coming class war" and say "we'll all have to stick together to survive,,,"
They started the class war, decades ago. Hopefully, we are going to win and everyone will be treated equally. They couldn't stand that. Their mommies and daddies have always told them they are special because they can buy whatever they want
