(41,600 posts)In this case, there are probably quite a few who are voting based just on gender. They want a female president ! Voting based on gender, race, ethnicity or religion is just pathetic.
Then we have the Hillary supporters who are part of the GREEDY 1%. They -
1. Are wealthy themselves and couldn't care less about the less fortunate or the country as a whole. They're just like the RWers who say "I earned it and I don't intend to share it." You know, the "pull yourself up by your bootstraps crowd. It's all about ME! ME! ME! We already have a self processed greedy 1% here - he always posts about how wealthy he is. So, there's that group that LOVES Hillary.
2. Own a Corporation and don't want to pay taxes.
3. Work in the Executive branch of a corporation and don't want to pay taxes.
4. work in the Fracking industry and don't want to lose their job - to hell with the health of our planet, water, air, soil and food.
5. work for big AG and don't want to lose their subsidy.
6. work for GREEDY WALL ST. And don't want to pay transaction fees.
7. Work for/own Big Oil and fear losing their subsidy or their job. Planet be damned.
8. Work for Big Pharma and fear losing their subsidy or job.
9. work for Monsanto and know their job will be gone.
10. work in a PRISON FOR PROFITS and WILL lose their job.
11. Work for the Insurance Industry and Medicare for all will cost them a lot of $$$$$ - again, it boils down to GREED.
12. work for the Defense Industry which, thankfully, will be losing a lot of money.
So, basically it ALL boils down to pure GREED. They have zero empathy for their fellow citizens. They have no empathy for people in war-torn countries. They don't care if people have affordable healthcare. It's like we're back in the narcissistic 80's. It's all about ME.
Bernie's Presidency will be ALL ABOUT EVERYONE...not just the 1%.
