Hmmmmm

Democrats like to define themselves as the party of poor and middle-income Americans, but a new study says they now represent the majority of the nation's wealthiest congressional districts.

In a state-by-state, district-by-district comparison of wealth concentrations based on Internal Revenue Service income data, Michael Franc, vice president of government relations at the Heritage Foundation, found that the majority of the nation's wealthiest congressional jurisdictions were represented by Democrats.

Outdid the Republicans... :eek:
 
Dell,
just an FYI,(in case your not aware).
The Heritage group, is hardly a "neutral" organization.

They have a STRONG lean to the "starboard side" :ph34r:

On a "unrelated topic",

Jesus,.............(these)TURKEY FARTS are BRUTAL !!!
 
Wealthier individuals are likely to be better educated. Better educated folks are more likely to vote Democrat.

In addition, rich Democrats are not out to soak the public so that they can personally benefit. They are actually willing to personally pay more for the greater good. That is why they support living wages and universal health care. Warren Buffet is a prime example of a rich Democrat.

Very interesting.....whats your take on immigration on the southern border and the new congress and their failure to resolve the issue from both sides of the aisle?

Do you think it is because the majority of secondary education institutions are liberal leaning (democrat) ... or do you think it is because the well-educated people are more enlightened?

Do you also find it odd that many of the least educated folks in the region vote democrat?

The latter. They have learned and know history. Enlightened, however, is not necessarily synonymous with liberal or Democrat.

P.S. I consider you to be enlightened.

They tend to be less well off financially and they vote their pocketbooks.

Mind you, we are dealing with generalities. There are many exceptions going either way.
