re: #198 Aceofwhat?

Methinks you underestimate how little the politics of income redistribution resonates in even some of the “poorer” areas of the country, to their credit. Not everyone who lives under the median income thinks they deserve a share of someone else’s.

Is health care a “share” of someone else’s income? How about properly funded schools? How about the distribution of law enforcement resources? Poor people whose kids are burdened with schools rotting and dangerously undermaintained, with large class sizes and no resources, are they looking around and going, “yep, this is what we deserve. Wouldn’t want to fix this! We deserve rotting schools!”
