I find myself regularly describing myself as a socialist. It's funny because it frequently results in a comparison with a supporter of Mao or Stalin which isn't at all what I mean.
In a democracy we have the right and the privilege to vote for what is best for us. I'm frankly shocked that any working person paid a salary would vote for someone who suggests giving the rich a tax break. The American dream is just that. A dream. Most folks will never have a chance to be more than a wage earner. Live with it and vote appropriately. You want protections of your ability to work. You want the right to work where you live. Vote as if it matters. Failing to vote is a failure of democracy.
