The approach I take with my ignorant friends is to try and educate them via the high burder of taxes we pay and ask them where the money is going. We are all homeowners getting by some a little better than others. Some of my friends have made no gains in 10 years yet still vote for the Clintons and McCalls ect.
The short-haired waitress was particularly unamused by our anti-Hillary chants and speeches.
The pretty blonde girl just seemed confused, but happy to be getting tips.
The GOP must take our share of the blame for that, as we have been all too willing to fight on the RATS' turf and not point out how ridiculously incompetent the Federal Leviathan is is dealing with local problems. Especially in the Northeast, we act too much like "me-too" RATS so the RATminions keep voting for what they've always voted for.

Excellent strategy, IMHO...I continue to read how NooYawkers pay out in Fed taxes a buck and a quarter--and more--fer every buck they get in Federal largesse in return!! HELLO!!! NooYawk oughtta be at the forefront of the battle fer Federal tax cuts and then tax away to their heart's content at the State and Local level to get whatever programs they keep trying to inflict upon the rest of the Country!! If yer Lib'ral friends cannot understand that logic, well, they are Willfully Ignorant!!
