I get so tired of this poorly reasoned idea that continues to be spouted from the left as if it is gospel, and that the "rubes" are just not as enlightened as some journalist in New York or a javascript dev in Mountain View.
How exactly would voting for someone like Biden help the average working class voter in middle America?
* Tons more quota / diversity based help that will re-distribute the already small amount of aid to people who are NOT them.
* Medicare for all and similar schemas: Ask them how Obamacare has worked out. It's likely they now can't even use any health services since they're still paying premiums, but now have a $7K deductible for their family of four.
* Shoveling money from the right's corporate masters to the left's friends in the public unions, legal industry, big tech, etc. is not a net gain for these voters.
* Increased immigration and globalization that may very well increase the economy as a whole, but certainly won't be trickling the wealth down to them.
* changes in the tax code that may raise or lower rates by a few points here and there, but have absolutely no effect on average working class voters who don't pay much in federal taxes anyway.
* Green energy initiatives that will allow rich people who can afford it to virtue signal, but will raise the prices of gas, heating, electricity, etc. for everyone else.
Please let me know which actual policy changes that Biden and Co. can and will implement that would help these voters, but who are just too dumb to realize?
