I’m sorry. Did you just post that independent contractors are liberals?

I'm guessing that quite a few of the musicians, actors, writers, arrangers, and editors who work in the entertainment business in California are liberals, yes.

I actually have a close friend of fifty years who went to California thirty-five years ago to be in the music business; he came back home after twenty-five years and is an absolutely insane, screaming liberal with whom you cannot have a conversation on any subject that lasts more than thirty seconds or so without him veering off into rabid Trump-hate. Before that it was rabid Bush-hate.

I'm well aware that it's claimed that many of the behind-the-camera people in Hollywood are closet conservatives.

If that's true, then — to quote Ash, the humanoid robot in Alien — "you have my sympathies."

I’ll see your friend and raise you my son. A two-band member and musician since 70. A die-hard conservative as are most of the members of the two bands he plays with in Sacramento.
