Well I've never knowingly voted for anyone who was in favor of raising the minimum wage. Despite my devils
advocacy in this thread I realize the economic damage it does.
Yet grass roots Republicans will support folks who do economic damage that is magnitudes worse on a regular basis. For proof of that just look at the power of the RINO's in the party. The grassroots have to be voting for these clowns in order for them to get elected. I know, I was part of the problem myself for decades, voting for the lesser evil.
So I guess we can vote for Republicans who favor market distortions, regulations, anti free market programs as long as the monied power brokers make money from the impact of those policies.
We melt down and decry those who vote for giving the poor, broken and dis-advantaged more than they've worked for while blindly voting for the tools of the banking and bureaucratic class, who are busy robbing the country blind under color of law.
The whole system is broken and I doubt there is any fixing it in any meaningful way.
I'd pull straight D every election out of spite toward the Republican traitor establishment just to hasten the end if it wasn't for the families of so many good people I know. I really don't want to see them have to live in the emerging cultural/economic dystopia any sooner than they have to
