And who are those that don't vote? How about the disenfranchised. Minorities, low-income, the young. You've heard it before: they say that there is no point, that their vote doesn't count.
The Freepers knock them: those on food stamps, on welfare. Anybody want to know who doesn't vote. It these people. Sadly, I am now one of them. Due to mental health issues I have been forced to go on Soc Sec Disability, Two years ago I was managing a million dollar retail store. I had a house in Venice, FL. I would go out clubbing almost every night (so, not me, but I digress ). And now?
I have no insurance. Because I am a single male I cannot get Medicaid. Due to cuts (thanks Jeb) Medicaid is only for women with children at this point. I am forced to attend a community center too see a doctor. And do you know what I heard these last few weeks. People HATED Bush and his policies but they were not going to vote. Said it wouldn't matter. I tried to talk to some but it didn't work.
Now you may loathe these people (I know the Freepers due) but those of us on the welfare state, and sadly, I am one, simply are not voting. Although I did vote (always have) most simply due not. I am unsure how to reach these people, as well as the young. Perhaps the next few years will shake some sense in these people.
Perhaps if Bush tries to shed my SS Disability income people will wake up. But I refuse to believe that their are more of them than there are of us. They are just better organized and have a louder voice. All the more sad because those so intolerant are supposed to be christians.
Oh my. Former party boy goes mental and "has to" go on welfare. He's living the American dream (as defined by the Democrat party), he just hasn't realized it.
Guys like this are such a drain on this country... I'm out busting my butt to pay this guy's salary! My wife wouldn't have to work part time if it weren't for this jerk!
