[QUOTE="brett636, post: 713104, member: 249"] I am not sure your going to understand this, but I will try nonetheless. As you correctly stated Democrats rely on poor folks for the votes to keep them in office, so why would they support policies that would reduce the number of poor people? As poor people become not so poor they may start to vote more republicans into office, and this, my friend, is counter intuitive to a Democrat looking to maintain their place in government. So what do they do? They come up with government controlled social entitlement programs to get more people under government control(Social Security, medicare, Obamacare). This in turn requires them to raise taxes, which reduces wealth,(more poor people to vote for them), and thus keeps them in power. This kind of power hungry mentality in government is far far far more dangerous than any greed based abuse you reference taking place in the private sector. [/QUOTE]
