(5,731 posts)55. Agree,& many of them do much for our country &the
world. Making or having money doesn't make someone a bad person. This myth had done much to allienate people from the Democratic Party. I hear it all of the time.
The problem is the gross disparity of disposable income among the people, and a system that fosters that...making the poor poorer and the rich richer.
Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, the Clintons, the Kennedys, George Soros, Mark Zuckerberg, and thousands of other wealthy people are on our side, and they fund many humanitarian causes.
There are many Repubs who do not have money, but they are single issue voters...guns, abortion, or they are ignorant and vote against their own interests.

Spasskaya would have been a more apt metaphor, and just as graphically appealing, IMO.

And it is readily identifiable by most everyone as an iconic symbol of Russia
