Why do right wingers hate democracy?

Those people are confused and believe wealth = virtue. Often it’s quite the opposite.

Virtue is its own reward and has nothing to do with wealth.

The wealthy class has always controlled America.

How many poor people are on the board of J.P. Morgan Chase?

This amazes me. That these folk think they benefit from having the wealthy class control America.

Will you please define wealthy so I can at least know if you're talking about me?

Could you please also define democracy? I don't think we have one of those.

...and to the REPUBLIC, for which it stands....

Truman and Lincoln were poor,

Just because they have, does not mean they always should.

Lincoln was a self-taught lawyer who eventually became a successful attorney and president.

Truman became financially comfortable during and after his time in office.

He was financially stable for much of his life and left office with a substantial, though not extravagant, net worth. Some reports suggest he amassed wealth through various sources, including his presidential salary and from writing memoirs and giving lectures after leaving office.

As a I said, the wealthy class has always controlled America.

That was in the 1850s. It means nothing in the America of wealthy rule.
