I have a question to
ask. Am I the only person who thinks that it is ridiculous for
Republicans to claim that they own work?
Scientists and
teachers in America work very hard, and most of them are Democrats.
The computer professionals in America also work very hard, and most
of them are either Democrats or libertarians. The manufacturing
workers tend to vote Democratic, and most of them also work hard. So
where do the Republicans get off claiming that they are the working
Americans and that nobody else is?
Many of the
Republican entities owe a lot to the government. Science is at the
root of everything that business sells. Infrastructure projects such
as the Interstate and the Internet provide a backbone on which
business can do its work. As for the majority-Republican economic
entities – government-subsidized oil, government-subsidized beef,
and the military that is the branch of the government – they are
either supported by the government or they are part of the
government.
So where, once
again, do the Republicans get off claiming to have a monopoly on
work?
I've worked for the
bulk of my life, except the time that the economy was in the dumps
and I could not find employment. I am all in favor of work; and I
vote Democratic. Most Democrats I have known had a strong work ethic.
That included people who came from the inner city and had a fierce
determination to do something valuable with their lives.
It is wrong for
Republicans to claim credit for America's accomplishments or to claim
that they've built America. The Chinese built America's railroads.
The blacks staffed its plantations. The Jews and the atheists
dominate its science and entertainment. The Hindus and the minority
religions dominate the computer industry.
In no way am I
against people being Christian or Republican. I've known wonderful
people who were the above. I am however against ignorance; and this
is what we see here.
America owes to all
sorts of people. And the Republicans have no business taking credit
for it.
