And Democrats care if you have a job? No. Democrats would rather you didn't have a job because then you're dependent on them for your entitlements and benefits!

See what I did there...

Way to miss the point, moron.

Here, let me make it easier for you:

Yes, I see what you did there: You lied.

...wow. Not only did you COMPLETELY miss the point, but your response is completely, entirely ignorant.

First of all, Democrats are actually the job-providers in this country. They're the ones who give a flying fuck about job security, safety and worker's rights. They're the ones making laws that say you can't just refuse to hire anyone who's black, or gay, or a woman. They're the ones who are OPPOSING Republican anti-union legislation (unions being the guarantors of decent pay and good workplace conditions). They're the ones who, if you recall, bailed out the auto industry and saved thousands of American jobs.

Secondly, Democrats want no such thing. They're not Communists, for fuck's sake. Democrats want to improve the system - those "entitlements and benefits" you refer to which actually comprise our social safety net for the POOR and NEEDY who would starve without it - and make it easier for people who find themselves in bad situations to get out of them. Studies show that something like 2/3s of people on welfare are off of it in three years - Democrats want to up those numbers. They want to offer support to single mothers, who by themselves comprise something like 60% of households in poverty and on welfare (42% of single mothers and their children live in poverty). Healthcare to those who can't afford it. And so on. How can you possibly crawl out of poverty if one bout of pneumonia will sink you so far in debt you'll never get out?

What do Republicans offer in return? More money for the super-rich. More tax breaks for the super-rich. Lower minimum wage so more workers have to work more to scrape even the least living. No restrictions on sending jobs overseas. Less protections for workers. They advocate for the removal of workplace discrimination laws and, thus, the ability of employers to discriminate against minorities in hiring and worker treatment. They advocate for less so-called entitlement programs so that the poor get even poorer and are even less able to get out of poverty. They are HORRIBLE for the economy and HORRIBLE on jobs.

And that's not even going into the whole "and Republicans also don't think POC, women, LGBT people, the disabled, or poor people should have any human rights" thing.

Now, I know you're trying to use hyperbole, implying that that's what I was doing, but it wasn't - I was stating the actual truth. Republicans are bigots and fools who somehow have been led to believe that feeding only the rich will feed the poor, when decades of economic policy have proven the exact opposite.

For fuck's sake.

I would love to accept your proposal, but sadly I am promised to someone else if ever gay marriage becomes a thing in this red state hell :(
