They want the economy to start kicking ass, they want jobs (yes, many people on "disability" could be working online and making money with no problem), they want to pay their own way.

And I agree 100% with that Republican. He hit the nail on the head. People getting govt. checks become dependant on them and lose any sense of dignity.
Give them an environment where they don't NEED the govt. to hand them money like they are pieces of shit...and they will be happy and have a good life as opposed to being a slave of the govt.

No kane...NOBODY votes against their "best interests".
You just lack the understanding of WHAT people's best interests are.

Their best interest is NOT in getting a hand-out.
Their best interest is a viable economy and hope for the future.

The two policies that won Trump the election were the Wall and bringing jobs back to the US. Whether he delivers them or not isn't the point. He promised them and Clinton said the opposite.

The problem is both parties are pro-globalisation and migration because they make the 1% richer. And we know who owns the politicians.
