Income is not the only deciding factor when it comes to elections. The 2012 elections have proved that. We are not living in Ronald Reagan world of 1980s. The values of the country have changed from conservatives beliefs to liberal beliefs. It wouldn't matter if a Republican ran base on your article because the MSM have a bigger influences on the people. The truth iof the matter s the 2012 elections was the deciding factor by the people as to the direction the country would go toward liberalism.
Some media pundits see in the growing proportion of non-white groups in the population a growing opposition to the Republican Party that will sooner or later make it virtually impossible for Republicans to win presidential elections or even to control either house of Congress.

That is what collectivism is, fear of growing up and not having a safety net. It is not about compassion or love or good nature or anything else but gut wrenching fear that you might have to make it on your own. It is why today's version of liberals are the least charitable with their own money, but want big government Fabian socialism. Mommy and daddy know best how to handle all those adult things.
I have fallen on hard times.
