This chart here? This is where the money is in this country.
To reiterate, the conservative platform is basically that the dark green section is telling the light green section that helping the sliver of white there is an unconstitutional waste of taxpayer money that the light green section pays, so that the best strategy is instead to take that money and give it to the dark green section and their buddies, the medium green section, through tax cuts. Even better, the dark green section tells the greenish-white sliver that they are slaves if anyone helps them, and they should shun it out of pride.
In other words, your average conservative honestly believes that the little sliver of greenish-white there representing the bottom half of the country has too much of a share of wealth in this nation of freedom and equality of ours. Politics is basically a fight over that sliver.
Have a nice day.
