I have a hard time understanding why Republicans demonize the poor. Now, it is clear. If Democrats care about the welfare of the poor, well they will just have to make it so that it is practically evil to care about the poor. Poor people are ruining the economy, the social order of things, they are lazy, ect... Now what kind a person cares about those kind a people?
