Quote from hermit:
"According to a 2004 study by the Pew Research Center, liberals were the most educated ideological demographic and were tied with the conservative sub-group, the "Enterprisers", for the most affluent group. Of those who identified as liberal, 49% were college graduates and 41% had household incomes exceeding $75,000, compared to 27% and 28% as the national average, respectively"
Yeah but the repub side wouldn't be burdened with the baggage of entitlements, so in theory they could be dumber, make less, and still have a better standard of living. While the elitist liberals many of which are academics financed by gov grants could try and run their little utopia and fail just as all other attempts at a utopian society have in history. Face it, without conservatives America wouldn't be ABLE to afford all of this wasteful shit spending.
