The Democrat Con Game Is Really Getting Tiresome
By Gordon Bloyer (12/11/03)
For years now the Democrats have conned many people into believing that they represent the working man. The truth is exactly the opposite. How do they get away with this con game?
You would think that a party that always wants to increase spending and raise taxes could not fool anybody about representing working people. Democrats do this by appealing to greed and envy and attacking the rich, whom they claim are the only people they want to tax. But if you tax the top one percent of the income earners at a rate of 100% you would not have enough money to run the government for a month, so therefore, you have to raise taxes on the very people that the Democrats claim they represent.
If you want to help the working people, wouldn’t you want a solvent Social Security system and would you not want to make changes so that it would give a better benefit to those that get it? The Democrats resist all changes to the system.
If you want to help working people, wouldn’t you want to repair a Medicare system that is loaded with fraud and abuse? The Democrats resist all changes to the system.
If you want to help working people, wouldn’t you want to stop illegal aliens (note the word ''illegal'') from coming into the country to get Social Security and Medicare benefits? Why would the party of the working people call people ''racist'' if they oppose ''illegal'' aliens. The Democrat Party opposes any effort to stop illegal immigration or to stop benefits to illegal aliens or to stop illegal aliens from voting. NOTE the word ''illegal.''
If you support working people, why would you take money from corrupt labor unions. Note the word ''corrupt.'' There are many unions that are not corrupt. The Democrat Party resists all attempts to clean up the corrupt unions. If a union is corrupt, it is stealing from working people.
Proposition 13, in California, saved many people from losing their homes to exorbitant property taxes. It was passed by the working people. The Democrat Party opposed every effort to reduce property taxes and opposed the proposition.
I can go on and on, but I can find no area where the Democrat Party is the party of the working people. The con game is over.
