Re: Giuliani, what a freak
the bell curve apparently is hard for some to understand
the bottom of the educational curve vote DEMS as does people in academia
both groups are dependent on government funding.
its easy to understand
That's not what you stated earlier...
So, which is it? Academics or the less educated....HS drop-outs because it can't be both.
EDIT: Just came across TD's later retort to the above...:shock:
There are quite a few things wrong with the above not the least of which is if you have a Masters Degree you're a long way from being "uneducated" or even "uninformed" about what takes place in America or its national history. Moreover, I seriously doubt lawyers will vote Democrat on the off chance they'll get lucky and win a civil law suite defending some uneducated smuck.
Talk about putting your junk out their, getting it stepped on and then ratcheting the old party tag line back all while doubling down and grasping at straws in the process. :lamo
Republican Administrations issue R&D grants to colleges and universities same as Democrat Administrations do. To think that grant approvals are one-sided based on party ideology is foolish. You apply for grants because you need the funding. Period.
However, you're right that in today's economic climate bereft with a strong Conservative bent and a corporate culture led by GOP supporters it's very understandable why these corporate CEOs would vote Republican! They want the "corporate welfare" with it's many tax credits and generous tax deductions (aka, "tax loopholes") to continue. Yes, I very much understand all the "keep more of what you own/less taxes on job creators..." arguments. I just don't believe the hype as the evidence of corporate elites using "their money" to create jobs on their own without government tax incentives and the wealth will magically trickle-down to the rest of us just hasn't come true. For if such were true, why would the gap between the rich, the poor and the middle-class continue to widen? Why would there be a 1% -vs- 99%?
DON'T BELIEVE THE GOP PROSPERITY HYPE!
