Do you think billionaires ever feel like this?

12. I don't think they do, and I don't think it's JUST billionaires.

I think it's Republicans, in general. For example - say a Republican encountered the homeless man at the intersection.

First, they would convince themselves NOT to give him anything because "he would probably just buy alcohol or drugs with it anyway".

Secondly, they would comment on how "ugly" his teeth were and that he probably never kept them brushed.

Third, they'd make some comment about how the City needs to clean up the streets from these types.

Fourth, they'd say that all of the homeless are that way on purpose and won't accept help from the MANY shelters available to them because they don't want to have to follow any rules.

I've seen this play out a million times in my lifetime. Republicans justify their indifference by blaming the other person. If they can place blame on that person, then they don't have to feel guilt. They can lay their heads on their pillows at night and go right to sleep. After all, the homeless man "deserves" it, right?
