They're actually different people in most cases. It's just that you probably lump everyone together that is far from you on the political spectrum. Don't worry, most people do the same as you, and in the process nuance is lost and stupid decisions are made.
- PhasmaFelis 8y agoWhat I posted is literally the position of the President of the United States and a good portion of the Republican Congress. Maybe those people don't actually represent their constituents' views (which is a different problem) but they are absolutely a force in modern American politics. What you describe does happen, and I won't pretend that I don't do it too, despite my best efforts. But don't imagine that there aren't powerful legislators working from the position of "coal good, welfare bad".
