One of the questions I encounter most often in politics (at least among liberals and progressives) is, “Why do so many poor and middle class Americans vote against their own interests by supporting the Republican party?” It’s a valid question, but the answer(s) to it really isn’t all that complicated. Though it’s undoubtedly mind-boggling to think…
To sum up, dumb people vote for Republicans and smart people don’t.
No wonder the Republicans want to dumb down the public school system by hiring all the smart teachers for their private, voucher schools.
Pretty slick.
