We don’t think it is against our interests, obviously. So the question really is, "Why do poorer white people who would stand to benefit from public welfare programs (the kind that Democrats tend to be willing to vote for) vote Republican?
Answer: because if we vote Democrat, then there will be more of the stuff that we think Democrats are for, like amnesty for illegal immigrants, government handouts based on ethnic minority, forced payments to government-corporate partnerships (Obamacare), increased illegitimacy of gun-ownership/usage for self-defense, increased taxes, increased government spending, etc.
I think these are the things Republicans care about, not really sure.
Where is Tamika Johnson getting her benefits? From taxes that are being taken out of my pay. If I am paying for something it becomes my business. I care about Amy’s abortion for the same reason I support laws against rape and murder, because killing babies is wrong and the babies can’t defend themselves. I don’t care at all if Adam and Steve get married wherever they choose to do it, but I care if they want to get the definition of marriage changed because marriage is about families. Families are what provide children with safe places to grow up. Children raised outside of traditional families have worse outcomes and go out to make society worse. Since I care about the society myself and my children have to live in I care about redefining marriage
What data are you talking about. The data that shows countries that have smaller government and less taxes grow faster than the ones that don’t. The Data that shows states governed by Republicans grow faster than ones governed by Democrats.
The US spends around 470 billion dollars a year on infrastructure. New roads and trains are great for politicians so they overspend relative to road maintenance. Even with that our roads are still pretty good. According to a measure of road quality 57% of all miles traveled in a car were done over roads deemed of good quality or higher. Which is an improvement of 9% over the previous decade. Most road construction is done by states and states that have way overspent on transfers and pensions are having a hard time affording quality roads.
Approximately one percent of the federal budget is spent on foreign aid . The top25 countries that are recipients are all in the Middle East or Africa. Approximately 20% of the federal budget is spent on domestic welfare. GDP per capita in the Ukraine is $7,000 per year and the average income in Detroit is over $25,000 per year. 55 years ago Detroit was the most prosperous city in the world. Detroit needed more than a few million. It was 165 million in the hole for the 2013 year budget and had between 15 and 20 billion in unfunded debt with no way of paying that debt. Detroit is a perfect example of how liberalism doesn’t work.
Foreign Aid is a very small part of the overall budget and most of it goes to bribing middle east countries to not attack each other and drive up the cost of oil. High priced oil would cost more than foreign aid does.
I vote for my country’s best interests, not my own. I feel it is my duty as a citizen to do so.
I neither lump minorities as a group together or get indignant when it is done to me.
I consider them all white and can sometimes tell the difference. There is no internal hierachy that I no of.
It is better for our interests to live in a peaceful world with states not run by terrorist or terrorist sympathizers and so have to intervene for the sake of our own interests.
Puerto Rico is a bankrupt island with a population that speaks a different language and has a different culture, there is no reason for us to accept them as a state. Since this is a democracy the voters in the US get a voice too.
It has to do with the time most Americans were farmers and kept chickens. The reproductive lives of most males chickens are very active.
The thread title says “the U.S. edition,” so you’re just being impatient. **Honesty **obviously intends to ask probing questions about whites in other countries too.
Don’t know who those people are, escape Adam and Steve. And they’re white.
You know there is such a thing as a white liberal, right?
In fact, we’re the reason Obama got elected. I do agree with you about his race though: I prefer to think of him as “half white”.
I didn’t know they were “our” roads. Next time I see a black person using one, I’ll be sure to tell him to get the fuck off.
Why is Detroit bankrupt?
The average American thinks 28% of the budget goes to foreign aid. What’s the true number?
You’re accusing white people of voting against the interests of whites?
We don’t.
Yes, all those people are white. (Except maybe Jews, who can be of any race).
Again, you know there are two parties in America, not just one?
I think you need to research Puerto Rico a little more carefully.
We don’t.
You’re welcome.
I’d encourage you to continue your education about whites, since you seem to know so little about them. Maybe you could take a course on “white studies”.
See, this is the difference between the Caucasian Conference and the Brown Down. The same discussion took place, but when the motion to table was made, everyone just whipped it out, and dropped it on the table.
Well, I mean, it’s totally obvious that the OP wasn’t present at the most recent Convention of Caucasians for Keeping the Coloreds Down. We went through all of these points there.
We’re not. We’re all conspiring to vote against YOUR interests. We have meetings and everything to discuss your interests and how to thwart them.
To piss you, personally, off. Is it working?
Insufficiently precise question: what about tanned green eyed people? or really pale people with pink eyes. (Actually the answer to the second one is that they’re either shut-ins with conjunctivitis or albinos. And either way, they’re hated and not white.
I can’t go into more detail because, again…vast white-wing conspiracy.

Because it’s fun to meddle. It’s better than the Super Bowl and we don’t need crappy sassy Detroit nachos to enjoy it.
To piss you, personally, off. Is it working?
To piss you, personally, off. Is it working? Also, it’s fun.
Because my penis is like unto a rooster. It raises with the dawn, it has a rosy red head and when it sees m’lady, it crows.
I’d say “You’re welcome” but as a member of the vast white-wing conspiracy, I’m not allowed to.
The White half of my family is very very similar to the Black half … actually, most of my Black friends and relatives are very anti-gay and anti-immigration; and most of the older Black friends and relatives are very religious and very conservative, though nominally Democrat. I would say that, among my blood relatives and closest colleagues, the differences in social, political, and artistic opinions are minor. I see this in general in my community, and I think lines are drawn, in terms of voting and social consciousness, along largely economic, not racial lines in my personal experience.
