“The low information voters don’t have a clue.”
I hope not; I’ve been thinking that many people who knew EXACTLY what Obama is voted for him anyway because they saw how bleak their future would be either way, and decided to vote for whoever would give them more “freebies”. I don’t think people want “opportunity” as much as they want “security” at this point (we can blame globalization for that); American workers have watched their lot worsen over the past few decades, and they don’t like it.
Our country cannot survive when everyone is expecting something free from the government.
I wonder how well people would manage if they had to deal with the conditions that our parents and grandparents and great-grandparents had to deal with.
We are all whiny wimps in comparison.
