"Score another one for the fat cats and dumblings!" said my mother-in-law, the Mass. native and retired professor.

More of her opinion: ""...the country is full of people who vote against their own self-interest.  Score another one for the fat cats and dumblings!"

 

I think she's nailed the biggest problem in America today: the fact that too many of us "vote" against our own self-interest--in our every day lives. The Christian who votes against gay marriage forgets that they are also supposed to be against government persecuting you for your own beliefs.  The hippie who votes Democrat doesn't understand how the Dems are just as in the back-pocket of big business as the Republicans.  We all need to read more, learn more and understand more.


That's what the government and big business is afraid of most...
