That means you Exxon Mobile. And the rest of them are probably Bible-Thumpers who would rather die than see a liberal in office.

That's the way it is, and the only way to stop it being that way is to get everybody to stop paying taxes... at the same time. NOT likely. I'm sure a lot of this is religion, but MOST of it is probably a ridiculous amount of national pride. Most people were either born into a democratic, or republican family. They've been taught throughout their lives that this party is RIGHT, no matter WHAT, and it would be HORRIBLE to support another party... and they BOUGHT it. The way kids rebel against their parents... voting for the other team. Now you have tens of thousands of adults with voting power that don't see wrongs in whatever particular party, only rights. Can’t let it get to us. That’s the way it is, and the only way to stop it being that way is to get everybody to stop paying taxes… at the same time. NOT likely.
