I'm just trying to tell democrats to quit worrying about what the GOP stands for. Its never going to change, just like the democratic side will never change. I have no problem with what the GOP stands for. If you want to look for the rich, go ahead. Thats your agenda. The democrats have a different agenda.

DC is not the richest region; New York is the richest region.

DC has the highest median income.

GSE's aren't an issue of the "rich."

3)corporate welfare.
You mentioned the import-export bank. That is one small piece of corporate welfare that should be brought to light, sure. But it's hard to take that initiative seriously because corporate welfare seems to form the underpinnings of GOP tax and economic strategy. This is the party that embraces supply side economics, which is heavy on the corporate welfare.

I've posted about all these, and get little to no comment from the left. I posted this thread last week and got zero responses of substance from the left. Just a few failed attempts to laugh it off, and one who claimed that the left was against Obama, which I will believe when I see.
President Obama boosts corporate welfare.
You didn't get comments from anyone because it was a babbling TLDR post with a partisan headline; that's ONE single attempt at discussing the export-import bank, and a half-assed one at that. Don't blame your thread's failure on "the left."
