Does any low income republican support "lowering wages to improve America"?

Every single low income republican that I have ever met is constantly whining about not getting paid much.
But at the same time vote for republicans that support the idea that
"What is hurting America's economy is that people get paid too much"

Of course we do. We get by with Medicare and VA-disabilities and SS- disability and other gubbermint disability programs. We hate it though when someone who is struggling to get by wants to raise the minimum wage. Cant they get by with what they earn?? You aren't a true Republican unless you are on at least three gubbermint programs.

Well I am not a {R} and consider myself a libertarian conservative and I am poor. The lowering of wages is not a ideology it is a reality. You do realize we are in a global economy and for us to be competive in trade wages would become lower. How else would you expect us to compete? Lets not forget it has been bi partisan that trade deals were made and the policy on immigration. You do realize that we have let millions of people pour into our country illegally that will work for less.

I also would like you to link to a {R} or organization that claims what is hurting America is people getting paid too much.

Lets not forget obamas push for 11-20 million new low skilled American workers. But we're racists and xenophobes, right?

Enjoy your welcome mat!

Ah ok, so you're talking about the mythological GOPer who lynches negros in his front yard on the weekends, is super rich but also dirt floor poor at the same time, has a direct phone line to Rush, Hannity and the KKK home office but lives in a mobile home on blocks, has a couple cars in the yard and hates the homos and Messicans but he works with them every day? That guy?
