And yet, about half of voting Americans will actively ignore those impulses and choose a party that openly campaigns on tax reductions while it drums up fears surrounding issues they largely agree with (when presented in a non-partisan context) so does it really matter what they say?
45% of voting age Americans didn’t even fucking bother to vote
How any didn’t vote, and how many were removed from voter rolls or didn’t have the right ID or were gerrymandered or
And they won’t next time either. Stop worrying about them and focus on those who do vote.
This is real defeatist.
There are absolutely people who will not vote no matter what. But folks are being actively disenfranchised and making it easy to vote by a proven secure method has become a political issue because a few who have power wield it without responsibility. Hell, if Election Day was a national holiday (as in, EVERYTHING is closed or by law folks are able to take time off to vote with proof of doing so) you’d probably see a substantial bump alone.
6% said “the poor have too much”
wat
Are 6% of respondents 12-year-olds that identify as “your dad’s a cuck”?
Mentally, about 45 % of the voting population are exactly that.
I’m more surprised that the survey even had that as an option. I think the survey options were just:
- the rich have too much
- the poor have too much
- they have about the same
Kind of a braindead survey tbh and probably doesn’t justify an article.
I mean the literal definition of poor is that they don’t have enough.
The ones who organized the republicans
In related news, 28% of Americans are complete and utter fucking morons.
Anytime there’s a shitty statistic, it’s often always around 25-35%
So 1/3 people completely fuckin sucks. This tracks with my anecdotal data

28% of Americans think they are billionaires that are just suffering a temporary financial setback.
It ain’t about “having too much”. Billionaires shouldn’t exist. Ipso facto, their very existence only shows that corruption and greed can influence anything to point that whatever that thing is only serves those corrupted. End it. There should be no Billionaires.
In other words, a billion is too much money for one person to have.
Where the fuck were they during the election?
Dumbfucks believed the orange guy who was sitting in front of the billionaires. Lets not forget that a third of the us isn’t capable of reading above the 6th grade level.
The survey only involved like 950 people and it only defined it as, “the rich” which seems pretty vague. Given the survey also mentions Bezos and Musk it wouldn’t surprise me if that is the group having too much on this survey, not humble millionaires like you and me.
Don’t forget all of the people who will certainly be millionaires in the future! They will definitely not be middle class and delusional for the rest of their lives
Middle-class people will be millionaires.
$1M equates to $40k/year income in retirement at a 4% SWR (safe withdrawal rate). In 2025, that’s not actually a lot, even if you have Social Security on top of it.
If you’re not a millionaire by the time you’re retired, you’re damn near impoverished. The only way for that to count as “middle class” (in the “close to the median income” sense) is if the middle class is destroyed (in the “existing separate and distinct from the lower class” sense).
(INB4 somebody chimes in with “it never was separate and distinct” – yeah, yeah, I know, working-class solidarity and all that. But you get my point, right?)
No they don’t, their voting clearly shows the opposite.
“Donald Trump stands up for the little guy like you and me” - the mental giants we’re dealing with
Be nice if they fucking voted that way.
