Cities tend to vote democrat, because when you live in civilization, you have to be able to cooperate with one another, fairly allocate space and resources, and not kill each other when people undoubtedly step on each other's toes.
In the remote rural areas, you can pretty much have your own bubble and focus solely on yourself.
My thoughts exactly. Erecting walls and blocking entry to the US of huge groups of people is the antithesis of small government. Trump's election has officially pushed me over the edge: I have become a proud bleeding heart liberal Why should someone feel ashamed for being compassionate toward other humans? I can't think of any reason at all, and find it amusing people are attacked for feeling that way.
You may choose to be compassionate with YOUR MONEY and YOUR TIME. It is not compassion when you designate other people's money to waste on refugees. That has a different name: THEFT. And theft is never compassionate.

The not what's happening in cities especially democrat ran. It's just the opposite little cooperation, unfairly allocated resource, and lots of killing and crime.
You just made one of the better cases against Democrats and their policies.

You can have open borders or you can have a welfare state. You can't have both.--Milton Friedman
We want we want we want, just more of the same selfish, self centered rhetoric from the left. And you wonder why no one can compromise with you? You clearly have zero intention of compromising with anyone, just push, whine and riot until you get your way.
So let me get this straight. Liberals are simultaneously trying to help refugees, tolerant/welcoming of Muslims, gays, blacks, Latinos, illegals, legals, pro-healthcare for the poor, and on and on and on.... AT THE SAME time we are selfish and self centered?
You have an interesting definition of selfishness.

How about when you guys make me (and everyone else) have to pay more for products because y'all want to slap tariff on foreign goods and some of y'all are too lazy to learn a new skill to fill the tons of high skilled jobs that are begging for workers?
In cities, Muslims and Christians get along just fine. In cities, whites and blacks get along just fine.
It's bizarre. In Trump's Cabinet, there is an endless parade of Southern state politicians filling major roles. States that have no or little Muslims, gays, refugees, illegals, etc. And yet they are ramming their ideology down the throats of all the city people who strongly OPPOSE them.
If you Republicans have any decency and consistency with your own values of small government, you'll stop trying to dictate how city people should live their lives.

This would probably be a better point if people in cities weren't the ones who were killing each other and complaining about unfair allocation of spaces while they protest marched against each other.

Sounds good to me. Let's get the Democrat cities into their own country, and you guys can have the rest.
