Why Aren’t You Voting in Your Financial Self-Interest?

The logic is that when the rich get disproportionately richer, they place a higher weight on moral considerations, which induces some rich moral liberals to swing Democratic. This, in turn, induces the parties to polarize on social issues because their voter bases have now both become more extreme. Faced with such socially increasingly polarized parties, a poor, morally conservative voter may well become more likely to vote Republican, even when his materially preferred economic policy has moved to the left as a result of increased income inequality.

I usually work for corporations who are owned by rich and poor, and more importantly have both rich and poor customers. I have tried to live by the motto "serve the classes, eat with the masses, serve the masses, eat with the classes." It makes sense if you think about it. If you own McDonald’s and serving food to poor people, you will be very rich. If you are a butler, serving food the the wealthy, you are far less likely to be rich.

My guess is you are neither. You are probably retired, so dependent on the very "gubmint" you hate so much. I doubt trump would send you a Social Security check every month out of his personal funds, but you should ask him.

what's the reason that lefties jump to conclusions and make idiot assumptions of the worst type? Is it to cement their delusions of people being 'lesser' than they are?
