The principal distinction between the right and the left is that the former is rich and the latter is poor. The principal distinction is that the right is filled with people who work in real jobs that produce valuable goods and services while the left is infested with people who do not work or do useless work, like lawyers, professors, and community organizers.
Consider the occupations of the last few nominees of the two parties. The Republicans nominated men who had been war heroes (Dole and McCain and George H. Bush) or businessmen (George W. Bush, Mitt Romney, and Trump), while the Democrats have nominated lawyers (Dukakis, Bill Clinton, Obama, and Hillary Clinton) or Gore, whose "occupation" defies description.
Who supports Republicans? Principally folks do work of value, like producing food, healing the sick, growing cotton, drilling oil, building houses, mining coal, protecting us as policemen and soldiers, healing the sick. Productive people.
Who supports Democrats? Principally those sloths whose "work" has nothing of real value to ordinary Americans at all like sociology professors; government bureaucrats; public school administrators; blood-sucking lawyers; and, of course, that vast army of leftists who live off welfare and other entitlements and who do not even pretend to do any work at all.
What would America look like if all the leftists left our land? The congestion and corruption that are the real "work" of most leftists would largely disappear, and so the work of the farmers, businessmen, doctors, builders, and miners would become more efficient and inexpensive, and the huge slab of national wealth gobbled by those drones of the left could be consumed by those who actually created the wealth.

When you look at the welfarian rank & file of the left, you realize you are dealing with a population that productive people want nowhere near them. I honestly couldn’t imagine living as a pariah like that.
But we need the left - who’s going to keep all the tattoo parlours, vegan restaurants and abortion clinics in business?
The left is poor? Has this guy ever spent time on either coast?
Makers and Takers.
The US commies are bimodal. Those on the dole and their minders/enablers.
Yup. The parasites are leftist because they feel entitled to live off the rest of us. The rich leftists, along alas with Dick Cheney, believe deficits don’t matter and that taxpayer money is infinite. The only thing one group has in common with the other is the belief that money grows on trees.
Useless left —a redundancy.
Don’t know so much about that “growing cotton” thing. Most US farmers stopped growing cotton years ago when cotton became much cheaper to grow in foreign countries. Most US growers switched to other more profitable crops. Not much cotton grown in the USA anymore.
Fixed.
A lot of Harley riders sport tatoos and they ain't leftists.
Redundant.

Apparently you haven’t been to South Carolina lately. There are huge fields of cotton all around me here. It is true that cotton production in this state came to a halt for a long time but it has returned in a big way in recent years. Fields that were filled with tobacco forty years ago are now turning white as snow. Unfortunately this state is NOT following up by producing finished clothing and other items from it, we are producing raw material for others to convert into finished products to sell back to us.

California grows a lot of cotton too, but not as much due to the drought.
