(36,594 posts)The thing is, they need to care about themselves. In so many cases they vote republican which keeps them in desperate circumstances. It's a vicious cycle.
How many of those people get their news from Fox? I know exactly what it was like to live paycheck to paycheck, but it used to be possible to go to school and better yourself. It's nearly impossible for people to do what we did to work out of it now because of the republicans. And even if they do go to school, it's really difficult to find a job, and even if they do, they're saddled with so much debt they are still poor for decades. Again, thank a republican for that.
IF they do not have a job it is the republicans that DON'T want them to get help.
IF they do have a job, it is the republicans that WANT them to work for slave wages.
It is the republicans that want to take AWAY healthcare.
and on and on.... We need to start telling these people exactly who has put them in the circumstances they're now in, and it's damn sure not the democratic party.
